T. Karras - Smoke & Mirrors (feat. Mega Ran) Lyrics

Lot's of fake emcees out there
That's right
Let's get them bro
Claiming that they're hard with their bars
They ain't hard
I can see right through you
Well I know you ain't mean what you speak
That's right
Everything you say and do is just pathetic and weak
Garbage
Let's go
Now I see you, performing in your fancy garb
Acting tough like you Kendrick Lamar
But I can see through the facade, you ain't nothing but a fraud
A wannabe emcee who thinks they hard in the yard
Claiming you got ties when you ain't got jack
Saying you've never snitched when you're really a rat
Never shot a gat, you put gimmicks in your rap..
And went pop when the sales went flat, what's up with that?
I can see it in your eyes
You're a kid in disguise telling lots of lies
Going bigger and bigger like air to a balloon
You constantly fear that your career will go boom
If anybody dare finds out who you really are
I don't drive fancy cars or flash a lot of money
But I ain't a dummy, I know, I was a fool myself
But then I took a step back and said, screw selling out
You ain't nothing but smoke and mirrors
There ain't nothing about you that makes you real
You ain't nothing but smoke and mirrors
All the words you sayin' are lies and spiel
I can smell a fakesta from a mile away
Sayin' they lived in the ghetto when that's a false claim
I'm middle class myself, I'm admitting that right now
So you can't say that I'm a fraud and a clown
I listened to the beats, studied the lyrics
I got knowledge in me so I can kill it
You can't even spit, you got ghostwriters
I listened to your music and it sounds uninspired
How can you even match up to the title of emcee
Especially when you are low quality
You've got no vision on your own, they're talking in your ear
A&R execs dictating your entire career
That's why I'll last, while you become the past
Trends move fast, especially when your music is trash
Who cares if you're number one, longevity matters
That's why my fanbase gets fatter, it's cause I put in the hard work and effort
You ain't nothing but smoke and mirrors
There ain't nothing about you that makes you real
You ain't nothing but smoke and mirrors
All the words you sayin' are lies and spiel
Mega Ran, let's go
I can see through the smoke and mirrors
Adjust my glasses, make the focus clearer
Objects are never as real as they appear
Cause I hear you've been living in fear your whole career
I've been here, holding it down, homie you walked in
When it's clear you ain't comfortable up in your own skin
Cold soldier with golden controllers
I'm a freestyle machine, you can hold the soda
Follow the leader, get topped up with heaters
Ain't no beatin' this joint cause there's no stoppin' us either
We unlock the procedures to break the body in pieces
We keep the combos high meter like I was Maju/Vagetta
I fill loose leaf tablets that kept the beat average
Now I leave Paris to link with T. Karras
8-bit, writers guild rep
But I've been practiced 10 years and I'm still fresh
Yes
You ain't nothing but smoke and mirrors
There ain't nothing about you that makes you real
You ain't nothing but smoke and mirrors
All the words you sayin' are lies and spiel
You ain't nothing but smoke and mirrors
There ain't nothing about you that makes you real
You ain't nothing but smoke and mirrors
All the words you sayin' are lies and spiel
