Everybody wants to be real
But sometimes you can lose the ones you truly hold dear
Would you be so obsessed about being a hunny
If that meant that you would wind up being lonely
How would you feel?
Would you still be real?
We take the time to let love in
To then stand right in front of it
When we're at war no one can win
But still your question is-
Would it kill you to be honest?
Would it kill you to be honest, with me?
Girl I lie 'cause I love you
You lie 'cause you love me
If truth is the mirror
This shit could get ugly
And that's honest
If we're being honest
If I had a dresser full of numbers you would probably call 'em
To see what recklessness I got involved in
Talking to yourself and trashing my apartment
To find the skeletons inside the closet
If I told you "You tripping", would you trust me and drop it?
Or would you pack up and leave me regardless?
But ain't nobody perfect but you still decide to pick a target
Oh yeah
We take the time to let love in
To then stand right in front of it
When we're at war no one can win
But still your question is-
Would it kill you to be honest? (To be honest)
Would it kill you to be honest, with me? (To be honest)
Girl I lie 'cause I love you
You lie 'cause you love me
If truth is the mirror
This shit could get ugly
And that's honest
If we're being honest
Honestly, honesty, has it's thresholds
Has it's ceilings, because the level of honesty
That I can give you may not able to take or vice versa
And then sometimes things should be left, between you and God
Would it kill you to be honest? (To be honest)
Would it kill you to be honest, with me? (To be honest)
Girl I lie 'cause I love you
You lie 'cause you love me
If truth is the mirror
This shit could get ugly
And that's honest
If we're being honest
