Hide and seek


Now that I can see the lies in people I trust is deceiving,  

crossing your hands behind your back after I told a secret,

I can't take back,

 

I wasted enough time on people,

too many times you tried to put my password in I'm disabled,

how many story's you told that I believe,

seems like bed time for me ,

 

I peacefully sleeping in a bed of truth ,

but the lies are coming after you ,

run run run there catching up ,

like a game of tag but the lies seem to have the upper hand ,

 

The lies will make you think you are right but ,

will kill you like an assassin in the night ,

never know when it comes around ,

just look everywhere it's all around ,

 

The world we live is a lie ,

we will never really know the truth inside ,

there's levels to push me aside ,

to decrease the truth of the politics lies ,

 

Its more to the secret eye ,

more than I can spy ,

more than the money people consume,

more than the devilish deeds they do ,

more than the cells on my skin,

more than the young men that died ,

 

Take back our streets keep the spirits alive , 

never grief over no one not even the ones I love ,

because theres no love to lies that's done ,

the next chapter of this story has already begun ,
