Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why you gotta lie
Gotta lie to my face?
Why you gotta lie
Gotta lie to my face?
Why you gotta lie
Gotta lie to my face?
Why you gotta lie
Gotta lie to my face?

I gave you my all
I gave u my heart and you smashed it like a ball
I guess i wasnt ready it feels like I've been here before
Now i gotta leave you and I won't look back for sure

Why you gotta lie
Gotta lie to my face?
Why you gotta lie
Gotta lie to my face?
Why you gotta lie
Gotta lie to my face?
Why you gotta lie
Gotta lie to my face?

I look up to the sky
How stupid I fell in love
With the devil in disguise
Tell me the truth
Just look me in the eye
Can't wait for you
Yeah I'm similar to time
How wrong i was
I should've listened to the guys

Man it stung anyway
Fam you wouldn't know about love anyway
You don't know what you want anyway
You wouldn't let me fuck anyway
Baby girl you treated me like scum anyway
That's when all the feelins just got numb anyway
You did your thing i wouldn't call you dumb anyway
Sweared on my life I didn't gas
Till Today

Sexy gyal i won't come back later
With you now gone I can spend all this paper
I would've spent it on you
All these flowers girl
I would've sent that for you
When I said I love you
Girl I meant that for you
Private location
I searched that for you
The signal's gone
Girl i jammed that for you
All them vocals man
I could've panned them for you
I could've bent that for you

I shout out the mandem
That is my gangdem
For showin me love
When you gave me tantrums
I bless the hood
With this new anthem
I just went central
Call up the Centrum
Forever peace
My bro just died we lit up the lanterns
Karma will come
Even if you go sandton
You were my haven
You were my sanction
Fuck this dude and you
