Bait & Switch

[Intro]
Yeah… yeah… uh (uh)
Thought you was real, but you switched up quick (switched up quick)
Bait & switch, that’s the streets, let’s go

[Verse 1]
Ride or die? Nah, you only ride for show (ride for show)
Smiles in my face, but your eyes say “no” (say no)
Talk loyalty, but you plotting behind (plotting behind)
Switchin’ lanes, yeah, you crossing the line (crossing the line)
Used to be solid, thought we had a bond (had a bond)
Now you sliding on fake, like a magic wand (magic wand)
Allies today, tomorrow a threat (tomorrow a threat)
I see the setup, girl, you playin’ chess (playin’ chess)

[Chorus]
Bait & switch, yeah, you flipped the script (flipped the script)
Smiles and lies, got me losing grip (losing grip)
Bait & switch, snake in disguise (snake in disguise)
Thought you was real, but you tellin’ lies (tellin’ lies)
Bait & switch, yeah, you flipped the script (flipped the script)
All this fake love, can’t take the trip (can’t take the trip)
Bait & switch, snake in disguise (snake in disguise)
Now I see clear through your disguise (disguise)

[Verse 2]
Told me your loyalty was solid steel (solid steel)
But I caught the game that you tried to conceal (tried to conceal)
Backstab vibes, every move calculated (calculated)
You smile, I fold, but my mind elevated (mind elevated)
Friends turn foes when the money talk (money talk)
Ride-or-die chatter turns to sidewalk chalk (sidewalk chalk)
You tried to play me, but I read the signs (read the signs)
I’m three steps ahead while you’re crossing lines (crossing lines)

[Bridge]
Used to ride, used to die, now I slide solo (slide solo)
Fake friends fall off when the real ones roll (real ones roll)
No time for snakes, no time for games (time for games)
I keep my circle tight, no shame, no shame (no shame)

[Verse 3 / Outro Bars]
You played the part, but I caught the act (caught the act)
All smiles, all talk, but your heart’s off track (heart’s off track)
Bait & switch, that’s the code of the streets (code of the streets)
Learned the hard way, now I guard my peace (guard my peace)
Loyalty rare, fake love everywhere (everywhere)
So I ride solo, no one else compare (no compare)
Bait & switch, lesson burned in my soul (burned in my soul)
Street taught me how to survive, stay in control (stay in control)

[Outro / Chorus Repeat]
Bait & switch, yeah, you flipped the script (flipped the script)
Smiles and lies, got me losing grip (losing grip)
Bait & switch, snake in disguise (snake in disguise)
Thought you was real, but you tellin’ lies (tellin’ lies)
