I'm gonna lie someday
i try to find a way
to avoid it
if i lie
I'm not being true to myself
the inside of me might as well die
honesty is the most common wealth
it is the key to life
at times it can be sharp and bold
almost as if you were stabbed with a knife
without honesty, there is nothing to hold
once you lie
your soul starts to burn
your mind starts to cry
your insides start to turn
you eventually die
you sigh
thats not a lie
