Not Gonna Lie

NOT GONNA LIE

When I started out
I sang a lot of words
Things I didn't know about
Just what I had heard
My woman hadn't left me yet
I was too young at the time
Get ready for the truth
'Cause I'm not gonna lie

Music was my way out
From poverty and crime
I didn't want to be like that
There's more I had to find
Showing my frustration
I let my fingers fly
My guitar is what saved me
And I'm not gonna lie

So and so will hold you back
This that and the third
I wasn't having none of that
Not one lyin' word

People come to see me
It's really dope for sure
Blues is where i come from
Doctor got no cure
Got to keep it going
I promised Buddy Guy
This is our history
And I'm not gonna lie

This is our history
And I'm not gonna lie
I'm not gonna lie
I'm not gonna lie
