Living A Lie
Skindred Lyrics

Yo, you're not real, you're fake
You are not authentic and honest but instead phony and insincere

Running your mouth, but you made a mistake
You talk too much but have made a huge blunder in what you conveyed

I see through you, like a pane of glass
I can clearly see your true intentions and who you really are

One shot of trouble and you're out like 'ras'
A single incident of difficulty and you flee like a scared rabbit

Screaming about I'm not into this, bless
You are loudly claiming to not be interested in something, yet it appears to not be genuine

I never really wanna get into this mess
I have zero desire to involve myself in this chaotic situation

You were goin on like you're a gangster
You were pretending to be a tough and intimidating criminal

When you were the first to run outta ya
But you were the initial one to retreat and flee

You got a real fake tan goin on luv
Your tan appears to be artificial, sweetheart

Why you talkin like you're black then for bruv
Why are you speaking like an African-American, dude?

There's a perfect storm comin on like Pinocchio
There is a hazardous and unfavorable situation looming like the moment Pinocchio's nose grew

Your nose it just grew...
You have been dishonest, and your deceit is exposed in the form of Pinocchio's growing nose

Faking and frauding, I do believe mans talking
I think that you are fabricating and deceiving, and therefore cannot be trusted

Real life gets boring, the truth we're all distorting
Actual life can be tedious, so we tend to manipulate and alter the truth to make things more interesting

Don't ever tell no one cos it's a secret
Do not share this with anyone because it is confidential

And if they find out I know I never leaked it
And if someone discovers this information, I want them to know that I did not divulge it

A crippled broken soul means to an ending
A spirit that is damaged and ruined leads to an ultimate downfall

A thousand million of us just pretending
Numerous individuals, myself included, are feigning and not being genuine

Living a lie still
Continuing to deceive and live in untruth

I know what you are!
I see your true nature and can identify you for who and what you really are

Who gets caught in a relationship
Who is trapped in a partnership that is not fulfilling

Where they can't go out and they're pussy whipped
Where they have lost their freedom and are subservient to their partner

All I wanted was a one night stand
I originally only desired a brief sexual encounter

Not worries with a woman who's spending grands
Not problems with a woman who is spending a large sum of money

This was not supposed to be me
I was not intended to be in this situation

Caught in a place where I don't wanna be
Trapped in a location or status where I do not wish to remain

Fucked now, that's my reality
Screwed and stuck in this undesirable and unfavorable situation

There's too many people dem are sleeping with the enemy
There are too many individuals who are giving their trust to people who are working against them

So what the fuck do you stay with him for mum
So why do you remain with him, mom, when he treats you poorly

But that's the way your dad's always been son
But that is the way your father has always acted, my child

Too much of this shit going on
There is an excessive amount of these terrible situations happening

You're a fucking liar!
You are a dishonest and deceptive individual

You're a fu-fu liar!
You are a frequent and habitual liar

Living a lie still
Continuing to deceive and live in untruth

Living a lie
Not being genuine and living a false persona
