"Fake It" Lyrics: [CHORUS] I think there’s something wrong with me, I feel crazy And I don’t seem to get along with people these days, see It started as a problem for me, now I embrace it If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it Dead broke, fake it, head low, fake it Be somebody else cuz they said so, fake it Life is only everything you make it If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it [VERSE 1] I’ve just gotta know, what is it you want from me? It’s a slippery slope trying to please you and it’s haunting me Every night I sleep, praying that I wake To be the man I wanna be and rap another day I won’t ever give up, I pray I don’t give in To what I contemplate when I’m debating on my sins I should rob a bank, I should’ve been a felon I should’ve made a living faking everything I’m selling Would I go back, to my old past, if I know that, if I go back, that I won’t last If I fold that’s, when I go fast, to a cold bag, with a toe tag Homegrown, I’m solo, so low though, I smoke grass And it’s so sad, I’m a nomad, but I’m so trapped, in my own madness Something’s gotta give, I ain’t afraid to Y’all know more about me than I do, even the pain too I know you’ve been missing all these pictures that I paint you But how was I to hang it up for you if the frame’s loose [CHORUS] I think there’s something wrong with me, I feel crazy And I don’t seem to get along with people these days, see It started as a problem for me, now I embrace it If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it Dead broke, fake it, head low, fake it Be somebody else cuz they said so, fake it Life is only everything you make it If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it [VERSE 2] People tell me every day that I should write more happy raps I’m not about to backflip, don’t treat me like an acrobat Walking on a tight rope but these days I ain’t half as mad As when you know I can’t relapse and try to pull me back to that I’m working and if you were my fan, you wouldn’t offer me And when I tell you no, don’t punish me like I’m your property I don’t work a 9-5, I ain’t got a boss to please And I ain’t gonna jump for you to make you think I’m awesome, G I’m good, I smoke herb but only when I’m writing rhymes Seldom with somebody else, I’m guessing it’s a vice of mine Never to fight the mind, meditate to find divine Chemicals cannot sedate my inner hate and rotten spine It’s more than rap to me, this is my whole life I only do this for freedom, not your cosign The darkest corners I live in will be so bright Sit up in them bleeders with your nose tight [CHORUS] I think there’s something wrong with me, I feel crazy And I don’t seem to get along with people these days, see It started as a problem for me, now I embrace it If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it Dead broke, fake it, head low, fake it Be somebody else cuz they said so, fake it Life is only everything you make it If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it
this dude is 100% the realest rapper/artist I listen to., his lyrics hit my soul and I feel them like he's singing about me when he's really taking about his life. been down since day 1, he's come a long way and I respect that he doesn't do this for a CO sign it's just something he's passionate about and it's his way of expressing him self and its just a form of venting.. I have mad respect for Cryptic Wisdom. I lost my Facebook account where I was a "Top Fan" and wore that badge with pride. I hope he goes world wide and everyone gets to know who he is just by listening to the lyrics he spits, they speak volumes
Gotta say , this is one of my favorites of yours. I love that you put everything you’ve got into your music. One of the most underrated artists on RUclips.
All me.... this is deep.. absolutely love your music. Bad ass artist... rock it own it. My favorite artist over all the main stream and underground. You are number 1 in my list
Found you by chance on RUclips. I am a hip hop Junkie. K-OS, BIG SHUG, BAHAMADIA, J-LIVE among my favs. I now have you at the top of my list bro. I am in recovery and love listening to your experiences. I am a member of NA and as such cannot even enjoy weed, however I respect your right to decide on your own path; all I would say as a brother who cares is please watch that your not starting to rely on weed to manage your emotions, as that's relapse territory for an addict 💙🙏🏼.
Yesss!!! Speak it Man... Hit me right in my spirit hey.. I felt with my ears my struggle layed out your words your rhyme.. Thank you for sharing your struggle thank you for speaking it raw.. Your courage your raw honesty gives hope..saves lives Brother.. Much Love & Much Blessing Back To You & Yours!!
Never to Fight the Mind, Meditate to Define Divine That Shit rite there is one if the hardest Lines ever for real atleast i think so if you sit and slowly say it and think about it shit is deep bruh Cryptic you got a number one fan in West Virginia Boy believe that...
I'm pretty sure I have listened to this song about a hundred times in the last couple hours this is absolutely my favorite song in the world you're doing good come out with more originals please you speak to my soul everything I want to say out loud is in your music please please please continue to drop more originals don't let the world beat you down homie
I saved this to my playlist within the first 40 seconds. Be yourself who gives a damn who don't like it only one way to find out who your friends are, I sure as hell can't like everyone.
I'm struggling to understand how the heck you remember all your lyrics. I have to practice a ton just to remember one song. Your lyrics are so complex... I can only imagine the dedication and practice it takes.
"Fake It" Lyrics:
[CHORUS]
I think there’s something wrong with me, I feel crazy
And I don’t seem to get along with people these days, see
It started as a problem for me, now I embrace it
If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it
Dead broke, fake it, head low, fake it
Be somebody else cuz they said so, fake it
Life is only everything you make it
If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it
[VERSE 1]
I’ve just gotta know, what is it you want from me?
It’s a slippery slope trying to please you and it’s haunting me
Every night I sleep, praying that I wake
To be the man I wanna be and rap another day
I won’t ever give up, I pray I don’t give in
To what I contemplate when I’m debating on my sins
I should rob a bank, I should’ve been a felon
I should’ve made a living faking everything I’m selling
Would I go back, to my old past, if I know that, if I go back, that I won’t last
If I fold that’s, when I go fast, to a cold bag, with a toe tag
Homegrown, I’m solo, so low though, I smoke grass
And it’s so sad, I’m a nomad, but I’m so trapped, in my own madness
Something’s gotta give, I ain’t afraid to
Y’all know more about me than I do, even the pain too
I know you’ve been missing all these pictures that I paint you
But how was I to hang it up for you if the frame’s loose
[CHORUS]
I think there’s something wrong with me, I feel crazy
And I don’t seem to get along with people these days, see
It started as a problem for me, now I embrace it
If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it
Dead broke, fake it, head low, fake it
Be somebody else cuz they said so, fake it
Life is only everything you make it
If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it
[VERSE 2]
People tell me every day that I should write more happy raps
I’m not about to backflip, don’t treat me like an acrobat
Walking on a tight rope but these days I ain’t half as mad
As when you know I can’t relapse and try to pull me back to that
I’m working and if you were my fan, you wouldn’t offer me
And when I tell you no, don’t punish me like I’m your property
I don’t work a 9-5, I ain’t got a boss to please
And I ain’t gonna jump for you to make you think I’m awesome, G
I’m good, I smoke herb but only when I’m writing rhymes
Seldom with somebody else, I’m guessing it’s a vice of mine
Never to fight the mind, meditate to find divine
Chemicals cannot sedate my inner hate and rotten spine
It’s more than rap to me, this is my whole life
I only do this for freedom, not your cosign
The darkest corners I live in will be so bright
Sit up in them bleeders with your nose tight
[CHORUS]
I think there’s something wrong with me, I feel crazy
And I don’t seem to get along with people these days, see
It started as a problem for me, now I embrace it
If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it
Dead broke, fake it, head low, fake it
Be somebody else cuz they said so, fake it
Life is only everything you make it
If I ain’t in the mood dude, I ain’t gonna fake it, fake it
Cryptic Wisdom i sang the lyrics & i cant keep up
