This song was created in a mix of thinking about my mishaps and my relationship while also mixing my perceived perceptions of what my partner may be feeling. I tend to mix those when I make music a bit. This song will be dropping in between multiple releases but will be the 2nd single off of my upcoming project later this year.
ooh ooh
Tell me why I’m here in the same way
Won’t you tell how I made this choice
Again and again like when does it end
(tell me why)
Tell me what I mean to you
Is it really true when you call me ya boo
(say my name)
Cuz I’m skeptical I been thinking too hard
Intellectual
Think I’m finding that you sexual
(uh uh)
and not for me
Like who could it be
and could you see they’re everything that you need
What does this mean to you
Seems like ya scheming to
Forget about me
What? You trynna live without me?

Tell me lies tell me lies make it sound good
(tell me lies yeah)
You would never tell the truth unless it sound good.
I been waiting all alone no it ain’t good
You been on the other coast I’m guessing what you founds good
(is What you found good)
Don’t want no break but you ready
Sometimes I make this seem petty
I count 1 2 3 (1 2 3)
Damn (damn damn damn damn)
Girl look what you do to me
So Tell me lies tell me lies make it sound good
(make it sound good)
You would never tell the truth unless it sound good.
Tell me lies tell me lies make it sound good
You would never tell the truth unless it sound good.

Heart swole from too much pressure
I don’t knows and maybe nevers
We out here talking to a therapist
God I swear I’d never share a lick (share a lick)
God never gave me more than I can bare with him
Please show me that you care again (wait)
I can’t be wasting time you’ve played with mine
And think it’s fine (wait)
I know you can’t just be so careless
tell me how we got here please share it (please share)
(wait)
Or babe just lie to me
And tell me your my bride to be
Cuz if I hear the truth
I’m liable to go find out who

Tell me lies tell me lies make it sound good
(tell me lies yeah)
You would never tell the truth unless it sound good.
I been waiting all alone no it ain’t good
You been on the other coast I’m guessing what you founds good
(is What you found good)
Don’t want no break but you ready
Sometimes I make this seem petty
I count 1 2 3 (1 2 3)
Damn (damn damn damn damn)
Girl look what you do to me
So Tell me lies tell me lies make it sound good
(make it sound good)
You would never tell the truth unless it sound good.
Tell me lies tell me lies make it sound good
You would never tell the truth unless it sound good.

Don't want no break but you ready
(you ready)
sometimes I make this seem petty
(I'm too, too Petty)
So Tell me lies tell me lies make it sound good
(tell me lies, sound good)
You would never tell the truth unless it sound good.
Tell me lies tell me lies make it sound good
You would never tell the truth unless it sound good. x

Got a soulful r&b vibe, kinda a melodic/rap hybrid, and building the bridge results in novel synchronicities on occasion, backing vocals add a tasteful dimension, recalls Fleetwood Mac "tell me lies'/tell me sweet pretty lies", kudos..
