LYRICS FOR "Lies"
Lies
Using lies as alibis
Lies
Just a devil in disguise
It's the same game played in many ways
Everyone is the victim too
It's just a waste of time
So why do people insist on lies?
I'll live my life a different way
Refuse to let myself become a victim
Getting caught up in a vicious web of
Lies
Using lies as alibis
Lies
Just a devil in disguise
The nation's leaders as well as teachers
Practice lies as a way of lie
So think before you speak 'cause what you sow you reap
The truth will always be brought to light
Will we ever learn one day
That telling lies always lead to madness
Misery and sometimes pain?
Lies
Using lies as alibis
Lies
Just a devil in disguise
Lies
Using lies as alibis
Lies
Just a devil in disguise
Lies and deceit
Communities suffering
When we think of lies we tend to think of politicians
But what about the husband who's on a mission
Lying to his wife so he can get it on and get some
Coming back home with a dumb expression
Written on a face that he's guilty as a criminal
It's time to change your attitude
Don't listen to a funky rhyme that's kickin' knowledge that we need
We lie about our hair and we know we got a weave
Politicians lie about the things they're gonna do
And everybody's tale affects me and you
A smoker lies about the money that he stole
And a dope dealer never tells you how he got his gold
I guess what Debbie.T is really trying to say is
When you break it all down
I'll live my life a different way
Refuse to let myself become a victim
Caught up in a vicious web of lies
Lies
Using lies as alibis
Lies
Just a devil in disguise
Lies
Using lies as alibis
Lies
Just a devil in disguise
Lies
Using lies as alibis
