lyrics

To all the drama queens tired of chasing frat boy dreams, listen up
To all the gym jocks doing curls who can’t lift the weight of the world, listen up

It doesn’t matter how hot you look if your heart is running cold
It doesn’t matter who you hook up with if you end up all alone

Don’t buy the lie
Truth has so much more to say
Don’t buy the lie
Your soul is way too much to pay
Don’t buy the lie
I’m talking ‘bout you
And I’m talking ‘bout me
Is this who you wanna be?
Is this who you wanna be?
Don’t buy the lie

To the corporate CEO holding tight to all your dough, listen up
To the uptown lawyers who don’t hear the inner city blues, listen up

It doesn’t matter how much you spend if your talk is still cheap
It doesn’t matter where you bought that suit if you’re guilty underneath

Don’t buy the lie
Truth has so much more to say
Don’t buy the lie
Your soul is way too much to pay
Don’t buy the lie
I’m talking ‘bout you
And I’m talking ‘bout me
Is this who you wanna be?
Is this who you wanna be?
Don’t buy the lie

Who are you running from?
What are you trying to prove?
Do you wanna wind up like the people who hurt you?
Yeah, you’ve got so much to lose
Don’t buy the lie
Don’t buy the lie

Don’t buy the lie
Truth has so much more to say
Don’t buy the lie
Your soul is way too much to pay
Don’t buy the lie
I’m talking ‘bout you
And I’m talking ‘bout me
Is this who you wanna be?
Is this who you wanna be?

Yeah, is this who you wanna be?
Is this who you wanna be?
Don’t buy the lie
