Makavelli Never Lied - Teena Marie

Thug life
Makavelli
Thug life
Twenty-two dubs up in the sky
Spread your angel wings and fly
A comet soars across the sky
Sent to give the
Whole earth light
Brother I ain't mad cause
You made my body shake
Came and went so fast
You might need a resolution
Reasons for my life
And the places
That I've seen
Rollin' with my crew keeps
Me rockin' till tomorrow
Makavelli never lied
Throw your hands up say
"He's for real"
And Aaliyah never lied
Lemme hear you holla
"She's for real"
Mom and commy never lied
Give it up for heartbeat
And Stevie Wonder never lied
Talk about the prophet
Now he's for real
Told you he was ride or die
Made you laugh and made you cry
I'm gonna count from one to ten
And dust it off and try again
Sister I ain't mad cause
You made my body shake
Came and went so fast
And I need a resolution
Reasons for my life
Feeling all my deepest grace
Rollin' with my crew keeps
Me rockin' keep me rockin'
Makavelli never lied
Throw it up your hands
Say "He's for real"
And Joni Mitchell never lied
Lemme me hear ya holla
Now "She's for real"
And Ariah Ari never lied
Give it up ya heartbeat
Props for real
And Bob Marley never lied
Talk about the prophet
Now he's for real
Pretty beauty please don't go
Stay and satisfy my soul
Make me high when I feel low
What's this need for neo-soul
Blessed are the righteous ones
Pure and heartened peaceful ones
Know that when your life is done
Heaven it lasts always
Brother I ain't mad
Cause you made my body shake
Came and went so fast
And I need a resolution
Reasons for my life
And the fine lines on my face
Rollin' with my crew
Keeps me rockin' till tomorrow
Makavelli never lied
Throw it up your hands
Say "he's for real"
And Marvin Gaye would never lie
Lemme hear ya holla
Now he's for real
And Lauryn Hill would never lie
Give it up the heartbeat
Props for real
And you and I would never lie
Talk about the things
We truly feel
Makavelli never lied
Throw it up your hands
Say he's for real
And John Lennon never lied
Lemme hear ya holla
Now he's for real
Chaka-kan would never lie
Give it up the heartbeat
Props for real
And Jesus Christ would never lie
Talk about the prophet
Now he's for real
Buffalo soldier here I come
Left us his redemption song
And joy is found from within
How sweet my soul aquariums
Beautiful ones gone too soon
Would you go back
To the moon Never
To the stars where angels host
And to the one who
Loves ya most
Infinitely
Talking bout eternity
They never lie
Forever forever
Never lie
Etcetera etcetera etcetera
