When they tellin' stories 'bout me

They'll never say I was a lyin' man (A lyin' man)

The truth will set you free, well, it hasn't worked for me

Fuck it, let me go and switch up my entire plan

Never one to lie, cheat, steal

But it might be time to try my hand (I'll try my hand)

Maybe I'll go further in this world if I turn into a lyin' man, I'll be a lyin' man

In a world that's full of evil where the good guy tries

To save the world, but the good guy dies

She keep on askin', "Where the good guys hide?"

But won't hesitate to kick 'em to the curb

Every single time a good guy slides

They said to be a good samaritan, try our best

Don't go lyin' to the IRS, you better pay up

I saw you step on every person on the way up

And life rewarded you, now it's a layup (Hey, hey, hey, heheh)

I've seen some backstabbing, rattrapping, no-good-intention-having people find an easy way to the top

And I'm not sayin' it didn't come back to bite 'em in the ass

But sometimes it really makes you stop and think, like

What if I didn't take the high road?

When they tellin' stories 'bout me

They'll never say I was a lyin' man (A lyin' man)

The truth will set you free, well, it hasn't worked for me

Fuck it, let me go and switch up my entire plan

Never one to lie, cheat, steal

But it might be time to try my hand (I'll try my hand)

Maybe I'll go further in this world if I turn into a lyin' man, I'll be a lyin' man

Maybe if I bought some likes and followers, and held the [lights?] [and/in?] [water?] up

In pictures like I'm ballin', I'll be on

Or maybe if we took the time to chop it up

We find that we've been proppin' up the pedophiles and violence all along

See, maybe life an appetizer in an olive garden

In a bigger universe, and our creator's tryna see

If I put the potential of a god into the mental of a dog

Is he gon' live his truth for what it's meant to be?

Or is he gon' try for a lil' power

Trade the light from his eyes just to feel the vibe

A liar dies every time he forget a lie

A lion really only die when he really dies

When they tellin' stories 'bout me

They'll never say I was a lyin' man (A lyin' man)

The truth will set you free, well, it hasn't worked for me

Fuck it, let me go and switch up my entire plan

Never one to lie, cheat, steal

But it might be time to try my hand (I'll try my hand)

Maybe I'll go further in this world if I turn into a lyin' man, I'll be a lyin' man

Every politician is a piece of shit

Most celebrities are a piece of shit (Lyin' man)

Half these millionaires are a piece of shit

Wait, maybe I should turn into a piece of shit

And finally get these loans paid

And cover all these health insurance costs without deductibles and co-pays

I'm waitin' on the okay

Things were goin' good, I got ahead

Until I hit a low and had a couple slow days

Man, I just wanna better my fam, if this a honest day's work

I'm 'boutta trade it all in and do some credit card scams

Or start a charity for clarity, supportin' a cause

And keep the money, don't report it as fraud

Please, I'm beggin' you, shh
