[Verse 1]
Ok
Yeah, I can see the lies I can see the ties
I can read the signs it's written between the lines
Yeah (I mean, I’ma say what I gotta say)
Yeah, I swear to tell the truth and nothin' but the truth but everything you said is a fuckin' lie
I’m livin' proof
You lied to my face, lied on your mission
You lied when you said that we started the same position
You lied on my family's immigrant expedition
Came here to start new but got treated back with suspicion
You lied to the courts, courted the judges
You lied for corporations incorporating your grudges
You lied to the public that publicly show disdain, yet you profit off the puppets that prop you up for a gain
You lied to my grandmother in apron, almost lynched in Tennessee for talking back to a patron
You lied to my grandmother in [?] started friction in Iran for an illegitimate war
You lied to the poor poured 'em aggression, keep us fightin' over race while you race away with protection
You lied about the outcome of every election
But the biggest lie of all is the one that's in your reflection
[Chorus]
(I mean, I ain't even gotta say it, you know who the fuck I'm talkin’ about)
Yeah
I can see the lies I can see the ties
I can read the signs it’s written between the lines
Yeah, (Motherfuckas act like they wanna hear it but, they can't take it)
[Verse 2]
Yeah
I swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth but everything you said is a fuckin’ lie
The best place to place a lie is in plain sight
