Faces look alike
But papers a different type
I used to keep em close
Felt they kept me lookin right
But I was looking right
Through the things I couldn't see
That Face value
And that shit that they pretend to be
Often offending me
Then befriending me
Shit are we friends?
Should I tag you as my enemies?
Either way were paper thin
Kinda thinking I should trade you in
Cause there anit no telling what you talking bout
Before I walk on in

No need to play pretend
Can't say that I'm astounded
Sometimes you leave that trash
Right where you fuckin found it
But I got surround
Couldn't split um apart
But now i've emptied
Every ounce of love I once saved in my heart

No need to start
With that fraudulence and fakery
Keeping my distance
Never going where you taking me
Thats why
I only kick it with a certain few
Catching feelings hearing this
Maybe cause I don't fuck with you…

(Chorus)

Careful who you trust
Have you think that they all in
The ones you least expect
Same one's to have you fallin

Counterfeit
Better watch who you let in
On the same team
But not trying to see you win

Trying to run game
So i'ma call you out
You on that fake shit
No time for what you talkin bout
Counterfeit
Better watch who you let in
On the same team
But not trying to see you win

Trying to run game
So i'ma call you out
You on that fake shit
No time for what you talkin bout

Counterfeit
Better watch who you let in
On the same team
But ain't trying to see you win

(Chorus)

They abuse
Then they abandon
Disappear with the quickness
Something like some kind of phantom
Insincere compliments
With the hopes that you'll enchant them
But thats a loan
That I could never grant them
I used to smile and stay
Then look the other way
Making up excuses
For that shallowness that's displayed
But your ugliness don't pay
So I had to cash out
Friends and money
Neither one is lasting in the fast route
Switched up my mind state
Split real from the fake
Lowered my tolerance
For some bullshit I will take
Would much rather break
Go out on my fuckin own
keep them faces genuine
Pass up on these fuckin clones
This life is too short
And I won't be wasting time
Shit time is money
Get nothing from my lifeline
Put up a bright sign
Tell um no vacancy
So from afar
You'll never be mistaken me…

(Chorus)

Stay on some other shit
Got places I'm trying to go
Yeah they throwing shade...
Tell em kiss my fuckin asshole
I let em play the part
Shit I know they type
Smile in ya face
But love to cut you when just out of sight
Took time to get it right
Now I kept it drama free
No need for that extra shit
I rather keep it low key
I play it stupid
Got you thinking that I don't see
But the pictures clear
Total transparency

Got burned and learned a lesson
Had to fall back
And not pick up that line
When they would call back
I watch them faces flip
Thinking that they all that
Inauthentic
Yeah - that's what you call that
When I had a need
Where the hell was y'all at?
Playing them damn games
I copped the baseball bat
So miss me
With all that faking and foolery
Weighing down my neck
Like some fucking fake jewelry
