Lyrics
Truth is really simple, but everything is complicated
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta get out of your own way
To see knowledge of self
Truth is really simple, but everything is complicated
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta get out of your own way
To see knowledge of self
Fat ego, anorexic on the empathy
Pay your respect, save your sympathy
Numbers don't lie, at least some of the time
We sum up the time
That the universe existed, call it 13.8 billion
People change, numbers change like chameleons
Same skin, different flavor, numbers are a language
Subject to manipulation of interpretation
Wrong name, that's a mispronunciation
Wrong number that's a miscalculation
Language are inventions, inventions are imperfect
But truth is perfect regardless of how you word it
Number it, label it, name it, describe it
Those are representatives
Like a sedative
They are not the sleep; they just lead you to it
So, if you need to sleep, you just need to do it/duet
Like two singers that sound like one
Harmonized til it sounds like none/Nun
And that's Khemetic for where all creation had begun
Truth is really simple, but everything is complicated
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta get out of your own way
To see knowledge of self
Truth is really simple, but everything is complicated
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta get out of your own way
To see knowledge of self
None means nothing, and nothing is in everything
So nothing is impossible
But everything is probable
What am I getting at
There's a difference between living the truth and spitting the facts
What's the nature of reality? We get the measurement
Confused with the life that we're measuring
But what do I know? I know a little something
Sometimes I'm Socrates, 'cause I know nothing
I don't know enough, and that's enough for me
Let's talk about you, that's enough of me
When was the last time you updated your storyline
Do you tell the same story every single time
Is that the real you? Is that the real I
Is that the real shit? Or the real lie
Like I mispronounced really
We confuse honesty with truth
One is self-evident, the other is what we do
Truth is really simple, but everything is complicated
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta get out of your own way
To see knowledge of self
Truth is really simple, but everything is complicated
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta get out of your own way
To see knowledge of self
Anything I pass down is great
When you pass on, all you're passing down is mistakes
Generational curses passed through semen
I see men losing their kids to inner demons
Damn, I fought for mine, they only play fight
Time to act like a real man, they caught stage fright
Running from responsibility, it ain't right
Rather be fly, instead of taking a stand, they take flight
Lying on your seed, that's hard to conceive
You eat from the tree of life, branched off and found it easy to leave
Like "yea I hit raw
But decided not to Bus(t), instead I just walked it off"
With dreams of getting Ms but you're MIA
At war with yourself while you're in my way
I'm raising my little me to better than grown you
Teaching him at 15 this lesson I told you
Truth is really simple, but everything is complicated
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta get out of your own way
To see knowledge of self
Truth is really simple, but everything is complicated
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta step outside of yourself
You gotta get out of your own way
To see knowledge of self
