[Verse 1]
I wake up on some early morning shit
Tune in to channel 6
'Nother killing, why they tryna slay us
Raving lunatics, I know it’s a crazy world
But I’d rather politic than lay up
Want a milli by my side
I ain’t thinking 'bout my bride
Ok a little bit, I lied
But good luck
I’m the cynical type, all this dying going on make me feel a way inside

[Pre-Chorus]
Please don’t ignore me
You fall short every time
Please don’t ignore me
Can’t trust that life online
I want that

[Chorus: A-Lex, Mishijah, A-Lex & Mishijah]
Face to face, face
Face to face, face
Show your colors, (Face to face) true colors
Don’t hide (Face)
Face to face, face

[Verse 2]
Look at how times change
Still parade if it rains
So fuck what you say
It’s my lucky day
I pray niggas don’t violate
I might catch a felony
Remember what you said, better keep that same energy
They checking for me now, but I’m not checking back
They thought I wasn’t shit, but I knew what I had
Fuck your waiting list, they wanted me in last
I could be MJ and they would say it’s trash

[Pre-Chorus]
Please don’t ignore me
You fall short every time
Please don’t ignore me
Can’t trust that life online
I want that

[Chorus: A-Lex, Mishijah, A-Lex & Mishijah]
Face to face, face
Face to face, face
Show your colors, (Face to face) true colors
Don’t hide (Face)
Face to face, face

[Bridge]
Story untold, don’t leave my story untold (story untold)
Story untold, don’t leave my story untold
And when the world asks who am I, who am I
Won’t hide, don’t you hide
Who am I, who am I
Won’t hide, don’t you hide no

[Chorus: A-Lex, Mishijah, A-Lex & Mishijah]
Face to face, face
Face to face, face
Show your colors, (Face to face) true colors
Don’t hide (Face)
Face to face, face
