[Chorus: Abstract]
I cannot lie (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
The way they do (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
How many times I've died for my own truth (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
I cannot lie (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
To save my life (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
If I go down, then you're going down too (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 1: Abstract]
There was a time when I thought
That my dreams would arrive
On a plate made of silver and gold
'Til I saw how they hand 'em to all of the rest
They got blood on their hands
And a hole in their chest, and I
Couldn't sacrifice my values
Can't even begin to know how to
Backstabbing, using abuse is relentless
Fame is a price, it ain't somethin' you're blessed with
How many times did I buy their lies?
Callin' it love just to bribe my mind
It was all just lust for the dollar signs
Now I write these songs 'cause I cannot lie
[Chorus: Abstract]
I cannot lie (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
The way they do (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
How many times I've died for my own truth (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
I cannot lie (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
To save my life (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
If I go down, then you're going down too (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 2: RoZe]
I told you the day I met you
I will forever be always for you
Right into my heart, I let you
And then you went on and corrupted me (Yeah)
So much for sympathy
And what you meant to me
I cannot lie, I never thought we would be enemies
I didn't take the fall for you and that's why you resented me
You really messed with me mentally
[Chorus: Abstract]
I cannot lie (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
The way they do (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
How many times I've died for my own truth (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
I cannot lie (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
To save my life (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
If I go down, then you're going down too (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
[Outro: Abstract]
I cannot lie
The way they do
I cannot lie
The way they do
I—I cannot—
I cannot lie (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
The way they do (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
How many times I've died for my own truth (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
I cannot lie (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
To save my life (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)
If I go down, then you're going down too (Ooh, oh-oh-oh)

The way they do
I cannot lie
The way they do
I—I cannot—
