Don't Lie
ºÚÑÛ¶¹¶¹Black Eyed Peas Lyrics

Sorry sorry sorry sorry
Apologizing for lying repeatedly

Hey, baby my nose is getting big
Admitting that lies are causing physical manifestations like Pinocchio's nose

I noticed it be growing when I been telling them fibs
Realizing that lies are affecting oneself and own body

Now you say your trust's gettin' weaker
Acknowledging the loss of trust in a relationship

Probably 'cos my lies just started gettin' deeper
Realizing that the lies have become more frequent and severe

And the reason for my confession is that I learn my lesson
Explaining the motive behind apologizing - learning from past mistakes

And I really think you have to know the truuth
Emphasizing the importance of telling the truth

Because I lied and I cheated and I lied a little more
Confessing to multiple instances of deception

But after I did it I don't know what I did it for
Expressing confusion about the reason behind the dishonesty

I admit that I have been a little immature
Owning up to one's own immaturity and mistakes

Fucking with your heart like I was the pre-da-tor
Describing the behavior as predatory in nature and inflicting emotional pain

In my book of lies I was the editor
Metaphorically portraying the act of lying as creating one's own story, which requires editing

And the author
Taking full responsibility for one's own dishonesty

I forged my signature
Admitting that the lies were created and executed by oneself

And now I apologize for what I did to ya
Seeking forgiveness for the wrongdoings

'Cos what you did to me I did to you
Accepting that the way one treats others is the same way they will be treated

She said I'm leaving
Hearing the consequences of one's actions - the end of a relationship

'Cos she can't take the pain
Acknowledging the emotional pain caused to the partner

It's hard to continue this love it ain't the same
Realizing that the trust and love in the relationship has been damaged

Can't forget the things that I've done inside her brain
Acknowledging the deep-rooted impact of lies on the partner's psyche

Too many lies committed too many games
Admitting to the excessiveness of deception and manipulation

She feeling like a fool getting on the last train
Feeling foolish for staying in a relationship that was built on lies

Tryin' to maintain but the feeling won't change
Struggling to hold onto the relationship despite the damage done

I'm sorry for the things that I've done and what I became
Apologizing again for the wrongdoings and the person one has become

Caught up in living my life in the fast lane
Describing the fast-paced lifestyle that led to losing track of important values

Blinded by lights, cameras, you know the fame
Describing the distractions and temptations that celebrity status brings

I don't know the reason why I did these things
Expressing confusion and regret about the dishonest behavior

And now our emotions are drained
Acknowledging the emotional exhaustion and emptiness caused by lying

'Cos I lie and I lie and a little lie lie
Describing the depth and repetitiveness of lies

And now your emotions are drained
Realizing the emotional impact of one's lies on the partner

Yo, I'm lying to my girl
Acknowledging the ongoing struggle with dishonesty and the partner being the victim

Even though I love her
Admitting to the paradoxical nature of one's feelings for the partner and the compulsive lying behavior

And she all in my world
Describing the magnitude of the partner's importance in one's life

I give her all my attention and diamonds & pearls
Emphasizing the attempts to compensate for the lying with material possessions and love

She's the one who makes me feel on top of the world
Expressing the positive influence of the partner on one's life

Still I lie to my girl, I do it
Revealing the ongoing struggle with dishonesty and the inability to stop lying

And I lie and I lie and I lie 'til there's no turning back
Describing the exponential growth of lies and the point of no return

I don't know why, and I lie and I lie 'til I don't know who I am
Expressing confusion about one's own identity and integrity due to chronic lying

Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Musical interlude

Ba da ba da ba da ba da badabada
Musical interlude
