letra de moment of truth (clean version) - gang starr
[hook 1]
they say it’s lonely at the top in whatever you do
you always gotta watch all the people around you
n0body’s invincible, no plan is foolproof
we all must meet our moment of truth
[verse 1]
the same sheisty cats that you hang with and do your thang with
could set you up and wet you up, peep the language
it’s universal, you play with fire it may hurt you
or burn you, lessons are blessings you should learn through
let’s face facts, although mc’s lace tracks
it doesn’t mean behind the scenes there ain’t no dirt to trace back
that goes for all of us, there ain’t n0body to trust
it’s like sabotage, it’s got me rеady to bust
but i can’t jeopardize what i have donе up to this point
so i’ma get more guys to help me run the whole joint
cultivate, multiply, motivate or else we’ll die
you know i be the master of the who, what, where and why
see when you’re shinin’, some chumps’ll wanna dull ya
always selfish, jealous punks will wanna pull ya
down, just like some sh-llfish in a bucket
’cause they love it to see your ass squirm like a worm
but just as you’ll receive what is comin’ to you
everybody else is gonna get theirs too
i ain’t no saint, therefore i cannot dispute
that everyone must meet their moment of truth
[hook 2]
actions have reactions, don’t be quick to judge
you may not know the hardships people don’t speak of
it’s best to step back, and observe with couth
for we all must meet our moment of truth
[verse 2]
sometimes you gotta dig deep when problems come near
don’t fear, things get severe for everybody everywhere
why do bad things happen to good people?
seems that life is just a constant war between good and evil
the situation that i’m facin’ is mad amazin’
to think such problems can arise from minor confrontations
now i’m contemplatin’ in my bedroom pacin’
dark clouds over my head, my heart’s racin’
suicide? nah, i’m not a foolish guy
don’t even feel like drinkin’ or even gettin’ high
’cause all that’s gonna do really is accelerate
the anxieties that i wish i could alleviate
but wait, i’ve been through a whole lot of other sh- before
so i oughta be able to withstand some more
but i’m sweatin’ though, my eyes are turnin’ red and yo
i’m ready to lose my mind, but instead i use my mind
i put down the knife and take the bullets out my 9
my only crime was that i’m too d-mn kind
and now some scandalous motherfu- wanna take what’s mine
but they can’t take the respect that i’ve earned in my lifetime
and you know they’ll never stop the furious force of my rhymes
so like they say, every dog has its day
and like they say, god works in a mysterious way
so i pray, rememberin’ the days of my youth
as i prepare to meet my moment of truth
[interlude]
you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free!
[verse 3]
yo, i got one lyric pointed at your head for start
another one is pointed at your weak-ass heart
now if i pull the trigger on these fully-loaded lines
you’re gonna wish i would’ve pulled a black 9
i mack dimes, crack the spines of the fake gangsters
yeah the bitin’ triflin’ ni- and the studio pranksters
yo, lookin’ at the situation plainly: will you remain, g?
or will you be looked upon strangely?
i reign as the articulator with the greater data
revolvin’ on the tascam much doper than my last jam
while others struggle to juggle tricky metaphors
i explore more to expose the core
a lot of emcees act stupid to me
and we have yet to see if they can match our longevity
but anyway, it’s just another day
another fake jack i slay with my spectac’ rap display
style’s smooth but rugged, you can’t push or shove it
you dig it and you dug it ’cause like money you love it
the king of monotone, with my own throne
righteously violent pr-ne, my words bring winds like cyclones
stormin’ your hideout, blockin’ out your sunlight
your image and your business were truly not done right
throw up your he allah now divine saviours
you got no hand sk!lls, there’s no security to save ya
no pager, no celly, no drop top benz-y
i came to bring your phony hip-hop to an ending
my art of war will leave you sore from the abuse
’cause you must meet your moment of truth
[hook 3]
they say it’s lonely at the top in whatever you do
you always gotta watch all the people around you
no one is untouchable, no man is bulletproof
we all must meet our moment of truth
