They Say Lyrics - Be - Common

They say, "What's happenin'?" 

We say the facts and if, they lie 

We comin' back for them 

They might say but they don't know 

They say, they say 

They don't know 

They say a nigga lost his mind 

But in the scheme of things I never lost a rhyme 

The thin line between love and hatred 

I'm the black pill in the Matrix, the saturated life 

They say life is what you make it 

So I wait quick on a spaceship so I can take it 

As high as the stakes get when paper get low 

I be tellin' Derick, "Tell Kara get us a show"

Little Com, I make righteous bitches get low 

The richest man ain't necessarily the nigga wit dough 

They say, "You ripped" yeah, that's what they say 

My niggaz couldn't tell it was me, like Jamie in Ray 

Paintin' a day, wit focused crime, broads, and good wine 

They say, "Dope is sour so it's homework and hood crimes" 

I stood mine, for forever and a day so goodbye 

They never could say tell 'em, J 

They say, "What's happenin'?" 

We say the facts and if, they lie 

We comin' back for them 

They might say but they don't know 

They say, they say 

They don't know 

Ahh, the sweet taste of victory 

Go head and breath it in like antihistamine 

I know they sayin', "Damn, yay snapped wit this beat" 

Fuck you expect? I've got a history 

Photos 

Groupie love now, gotta be them wheels 

Haters back down, gotta be that steel 

I know they cant wait till ya outta ya deal 

Look how they did D'Angelo ask 'em how do it feel 

My best friends worry 'bout me 

'Cause they know when you famous 

And you had made cash the media aims at us and you be up so high 

If you ever fall off, it feel like a plane crash 

But God don't ever give me nothin' I can't handle 

So please don't ever give me records I can't sample 

So I could vacate where it ain't no channels 

But it's quite okay for a gangsta to wear sandals 

They say 'cause of the fame and stardom 

I'm somewhere in between the church and insane asylum 

I guess it's messin' with my health then 

And this verse so crazy when I finish I'm just gon' check myself in again 

They say, "What's happenin'?" 

We say the facts and if, they lie 

We comin' back for them 

They might say but they don't know 

They say, they say 

They don't know 

They say, "Dude think he righteous" 

I write just to free minds, from Stoney to Rikers 

Amongst the lifeless, in a world crazy as Mike is 

On my paper, whether it's weed or Isis 

They say, "Life is a game", so I play hard 

Writin' for my life 'cause I'm scared of a day job 

They say, "Sef kept the hood together" 

I tell the young, "We can't play the hood forever" 

Play my cards right, they say I went to left 

They showed me strange love, like I was Mr. F 

Played chess in this game of, pawns and knights 

Now I claim king like Don, or Frank White 

They say my life is comparable to Christ's 

The way I sacrificed, and resurrected, twice 

They say, "The crochet pants and the sweater was wack" 

Seen the corner, now they say, "That nigga's back" 

They say, "What's happenin'?" 

We say the facts and if, they lie 

We comin' back for them 

They might say but they don't know 

They say, they say 

They don't know
