[Chorus]
[Elijah Lucian]
I can't lie
This is how it's got to be
For you
I can't hide
When I'm surrounded by the truth


[YTCracker]
First time I saw her it was love at first sight
First bright light, maybe this time I got it right
We hit it off and I dug her style
And I dug the way she made me smile for a while

I was denial
She a wolf in sheep's clothing
I should've seen it coming but she'd already stolen
My heart
And I had a hole, had to fill it
Everything seemed perfect on the surface

[Repeat Chorus]

So now we're dating
And I find myself hating
A bunch of little things but I keep my mouth shut
Hate conflict but my mind's like a mosh pit
Eggshells and mines where I walk
Got to mind how I talk
Got to mind where I step
Pick a battle or I'll feel your fury fuming 'cause I let
You know what I wanted but I rather not expect
Anything from you 'cause I know you'll let me down too
But I speak anyway and I trust you'll make a change
All I get is lip-service and some promises again
Tell me it'll never happen and you'll turn the other cheek
You'll turn another leaf begging pleading when you speak

I forgave but I didn't forget
On my own emotional trip
So I flipped the script and dip
But it wasn't that easy you appealed to my faith
And you gave me a little taste just so I could feel safe

[Repeat Chorus]

They love is blind
You can call me Ray Charles
'Cause I'm singing in the dark
To the victor go to spoils
Blood boils over pot
Meet kettle melt metal
Can't settle for a loss so I got to go and buy back
On attack now, watching my own back now
I will never back down, let you run me over, bend me over
Make it take it, I can't fake it anymore
So I break it off, shake it off

Now you wonder
Why I rape and plunder
Pull the legs out from under you
No more monkey say, monkey do
Staying true to myself take a stand
Drew a line in the sand, and she cross call "foul"
You perplexed that I fought back
Sorry that you caught that
But I'm not your doormat
I am not a puppet
Take your "sorry" shove it
I can't lie anymore
And I'm sick of all your lies
Hit the door
[Repeat Chorus]
