[Verse 1]
I peep the grin, I peep the lean
I peep the way you split the scene
Sweet talk drippin’ off your tongue
But your eyes keep tellin’ on your lung
You say “love,” but it sound like rent
You say “ride,” but your tank stay bent
I keep receipts in my mental stash
One fake smile, I can feel it pass
[Pre-Chorus]
Too many hands reach out at once
Too many hugs that come with fronts
I watch the play, then I watch the cost
If it ain't real, then it gets lost
[Chorus]
I peep your true motives, yeah
I peep your true motives, babe
Say it clean, say it plain
Don’t come close with a crooked face
I peep your true motives, yeah
I peep your true motives, babe
If the vibe don’t match the words
I’m already gone before the hurt
[Verse 2]
You all dressed up in borrowed shine
Talking big like the world is mine
But you fold when the room get quiet
All that acting, I can see behind it
I know the type, love a quick win
Laugh real loud, then switch up quick
Want the access, want the glow
Want the table but don’t want soul
[Pre-Chorus]
Too many hands reach out at once
Too many hugs that come with fronts
I watch the play, then I watch the cost
If it ain't real, then it gets lost
[Chorus]
I peep your true motives, yeah
I peep your true motives, babe
Say it clean, say it plain
Don’t come close with a crooked face
I peep your true motives, yeah
I peep your true motives, babe
If the vibe don’t match the words
I’m already gone before the hurt
[Bridge]
You can keep the polished lies
I read the cracks behind your pride
I don’t chase what’s half-breathed out
I choose the truth, I don’t need doubt
[Chorus]
I peep your true motives, yeah
I peep your true motives, babe
Say it clean, say it plain
Don’t come close with a crooked face
I peep your true motives, yeah
I peep your true motives, babe
If the vibe don’t match the words
I’m already gone before the hurt
