Pure Souls lyrics

[Intro: Roddy Ricch & Kanye West]

Life change when you famous

I remember, back before the chains, we was nameless

Went through stages just to hop on new stages

Open up your eyes, man they only entertainers

And I cannot sell my soul (Soul)

And I cannot sell my soul (Soul)

And I cannot sell my soul (Yeah, soul)

And I cannot sell my soul (Jesus saved my soul)

And I cannot sell my soul

[Verse 1: Roddy Ricch, Kanye West & Both]

I've been at the top shinin' like a light pole

And I'm just a product of whatever I was raised in

This money sanctified, so I gotta say it again

They said I was mad at the GRAMMYs

But I'm lookin' at my grammy right now

Pulled up on Ye, and I said, "They don't understand me"

I just want my dawg to pipe down

'Cause when you really came from the trenches

You was raised in the trenches (Mm)

You feel like you trail blazed for the trenches (Mm)

I hope God can forgive me for the days that I was sinnin' (Mhm)

[Chorus: Roddy Ricch & Kanye West]

The truth is only what you get away with, huh?

(Man, all these lyin' ass niggas, you know what I'm sayin'?)

I said, "The truth is only what you get away with, huh?"

Ayy, that's why a lot of these niggas be fakin', huh

Made it through the trials and tribulations, huh

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2: Kanye West]

Uh, uh, well, well, here goes

Well, here goes, well, here goes

I was one of them weirdos of the pure soul

That would go to the flea market to buy fake clothes

Every color Girbaud's, every Cutlass is cold

Every cousin that stole, every summer was cold

Out of all of the moles, out of all of the Folks

After all of the jokes, I'm the one that was chose

All of my friends love to gang bang

How we in my car, and you say we ain't in the same lane?

When we both had Pelles on

And we was scammin' for the prom before Chief Keef was "Bang, Bang"

Always had mob ties, stood on my six points, how could I not rise?

Love, truth, peace, freedom, justice, but I'm not five

This southside, and we outside

This southside, and we outside

This southside, and we outside

This southside, and we outside

This southside, and we outside

And for all the guys that went to the White House and said, "Free the old man"

Every day I put my life on the line to feed the whole clan

Personal worth is not what a person is worth

I can give a dollar to every person on Earth

Man, it's gotta be God's plan

Man, I swear these boys keep playin'

We gon' have to square up then

We gon' have to send it up then

We gon' have to send it up then

We gon' have to send it up then

We gon' have to send it up then

We gon' have to send it up then

My favorite place to send it

[Bridge: Kanye West]

It ain't how it used to be

This the new me, so get used to me

It ain't how it used to be

This the new me, so get used to me

Lookin' in the mirror, it's the truth of me

Lookin' at my kids, it's the proof of me

Devil get behind me, I'm loose, I'm free

Father, Holy Spirit, let loose on me

Father, I'm Yours exclusively

Devil get behind me, I'm loose, I'm free

Father, Holy Spirit, let loose on me

Father, I'm Yours exclusively

Devil get behind me, I'm loose, I'm free

Devil get behind me, I'm loose, I'm free

[Chorus: Roddy Ricch]

The truth is only what you get away with, huh

I said, "The truth is only what you get away with, huh?"

Ayy, that's why a lot of these niggas be fakin', huh

Made it through the trials and tribulations, huh

[Outro: Shenseea]

Woah, oh, yeah-yeah

The truth the only thing you get away with (Can't get away)

Oh, no

The truth the only thing you get away with (Oh-woah)

The truth, the truth (I did it)

The truth the only thing you get away with

Oh-oh, I can trust again

The truth the only thing you get away with

I can trust again, I can only trust in him, woah

The truth, oh, yeah

The truth the only thing you get away with

Oh-ooh, ooh

The truth the only thing you get away with

The truth, the truth

He know every side of, every side of you (Oh)

Don't shine through

They could never hide from you (The truth)

He can see it, birds-eye view

The truth the only thing you get away with

Can't get away

Oh-woah

They can never hide from you

They can never hide, hide from you, no, no

No-ooh, the truth

The truth the only thing you get away with

Get away, get away

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah, oh-woah

The truth the only thing you get away with

The truth, the truth

The truth the only thing you get away with
