pt. II (Lie to Me)

10 p.m. in Boston, cold December night
She in her yogas, about to head to bed, goodnight
Haven't heard back from her boyfriend for the second night
She like LeBron in Cleveland, dreamin' of a better life
Chasin' a ring, from a dude who actin' stupidly
Don't notice just how beautifully she dress for him, expectin' him
To look up from his computer screen
But he says he can't be bothered with that drama, man how rude is he
Truth is that that dude is me, and truthfully
I don't even know why she still cool wit me
Unhappy but she ain't got no excuse to be, refuse to see
The best thing she could do is cut me loose but she, she choose to keep
Consumin' all these lies that I produce cuz she, she used to me
See Cupid, he, he got her when he shot her, man she used to be
All on me like why can't you tell the truth to me? But truthfully
I tried to tell her I'm no good, she stopped me
Said just hold me, this is what she told me

Baby lie to me
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me I'm the only one
Boy lie to me
Tell me you need me
Tell me you love me
Just lie to me

Damn
So I'm stuck in a conundrum, ain't I
Hard to retire from the game when you can score like AI
Been doin' this since I was yay high, in May, I
Got wit like 17 broads, all started with Andrea
And ended with Shalaya, in the middle Lorena
A Stacie, a Tayla, a Lacie, a Kayla, a Tracie, a Layla, like 4 or 5 Makayla's
Couple Leigha's in the mixture, one had a sister, you get the picture
But I don't say this to boast, I just don't think you get it
My playa card come with an unlimited line of credit
And what just sucks is you put up with this, you don't deserve this
Nobody perfect, you're the closest thing though, I'm the furthest
Just tryna air my dirty laundry, someone crack the window
Tryin' to show her what she been through, but as I continue
I try to tell her I'm no good, she stops me
Says just hold me, this is what she told me

Baby lie to me
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me I'm the only one
Boy lie to me
Tell me you need me
Tell me you love me
Just lie to me, boy

Cuz I'll stay in this pain just to play in the game
Cuz you make me laugh, then you make me cry
But you take it back, and you make it right
And we'll make it right? Cuz I hate the fights
But I smile through the pain if I fake it right
And you let me, you get me
But that's how I know that you're worth it, you hurt me
But that's how it go
Cuz I know
That we
Could be
Happy
So all you gotta do
To ride wit me
Is just lie to me
Baby, please

Baby lie to me
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me I'm the only one
Boy lie to me
Tell me you need me
Tell me you love me
Just lie to me
I gotchu
I gotchu
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me I'm the only one
Baby lie, lie, lie
Tell me you need me
Tell me you love me
Just lie to me

I gotchu
