"Glitters Ain't Gold":

  1.  
  2.  
  3.  
  4. [Chorus]
  5. They say glitters ain't gold, I seen it unfold,
  6. Chasin' dreams in the night, but the truth's been told.
  7. We out here in the grind, tryin' to break the mold,
  8. But the shine don't mean a thing when your soul's been sold.
  9.  
  10. [Verse 1]
  11. I grew up in the struggle, learned to hustle real quick,
  12. Saw my homies lose they life to the game, it's sick.
  13. Money and fame, yeah, they promised that flick,
  14. But the light's just a trap, got us caught in the mix.
  15.  
  16. Diamonds on my wrist, but my heart feels cold,
  17. Livin' for the moment, but the story gets old.
  18. Chasin' after status, every lie been told,
  19. But when the curtain falls, it's the truth we hold.
  20.  
  21. [Chorus]
  22. They say glitters ain't gold, I seen it unfold,
  23. Chasin' dreams in the night, but the truth's been told.
  24. We out here in the grind, tryin' to break the mold,
  25. But the shine don't mean a thing when your soul's been sold.
  26.  
  27. [Verse 2]
  28. Fell for the illusion, thought the world was mine,
  29. Blinded by the bling, couldn't see the signs.
  30. Fame's a double edged sword, cuts deep, divine,
  31. But the scars left behind show the real design.
  32.  
  33. Luxury cars, big houses, all the glamour,
  34. But when you're alone, it's the silence that hammers.
  35. Friends turn to foes, trust gets shattered,
  36. Real ones stick around, when the fake gets scattered.
  37.  
  38. [Bridge]
  39. It's a cycle, a spiral, a game of deceit,
  40. Got you trapped in a loop, can't find your feet.
  41. Break free from the chains, don't accept defeat,
  42. Find the truth in yourself, that's the real feat.
  43.  
  44. [Chorus]
  45. They say glitters ain't gold, I seen it unfold,
  46. Chasin' dreams in the night, but the truth's been told.
  47. We out here in the grind, tryin' to break the mold,
  48. But the shine don't mean a thing when your soul's been sold.
  49.  
  50. [Outro]
  51. So remember this lesson, when you're out on the grind,
  52. Not all that glitters is gold, keep that in mind.
  53. Stay true to yourself, don't get left behind,
  54. In a world full of fakes, be the one they can't bind.
