Lie to me.
Tell me everything is gonna be alright.
Tell me that nobody gets killed at night
Tell me that the dark will always succumb to the light
Tell me everybody will get along and not fight
Tell me that good food is in every bite
Tell me you can see everything if you have your sight
Tell me I can reach unlimited the height
Tell me I can be as successful as somebody who was born a fraction white.
Tell me life is beautiful... but not quite
Lie to me.
Tell me I can be anything I want to be
Tell me I can go as far as my eye can see
Tell me my roots'll be as strong as those of a tree
Tell me freedom is free
Tell me education is the key
Tell me people don't hate me
Tell me text messages over the limit don't cost a fee
Tell me God's a G.
Tell me some kid wants to aspire to be me
Tell me Palm will kill Apple with their Pre
Tell me it's okay for an Asian Kid to ski
Tell me the PS3 will beat the Wii
Tell me book isn't as good as the movie.
Lie to me...
Tell me the sun's always shining and there's no rain.
Tell me life is without pain
Tell me there's nothing to lose, only things to gain
Tell me little girls in the hood don't ride the train
Tell me it's more profitable to get a 9-5 than it is to sell 'Caine
Tell me George Bush was sane
Tell me all our hopes and dreams aren't going down the drain
Tell me blood don't stain
Tell me the moon don't wane
Tell me people don't say my name in vane
Tell me that everybody knows my name...
Lie to me.
Tell me and let me know that you legitimately care
Tell me you'll always be there
Tell me that your intentions are pure
Tell me you're my pessimism's cure
Tell me I'm not Insecure
Tell me I'm always right
But tell me I'm wrong when I say our environment is a blight
Tell me
Feed me
Give me all your lies
Whether or not you're looking out for me, or trying to hurt me
Lie to me.
