The Lie We Live (Ft. NuBorne)

by Tesstamona

/

about

This is a track we centered around toxic dynamics in relationships, verse by verse we act out the surface level drama, then get deeper into whats really going on internally, how its typically not about the other person but rather us weaponizing our fears against each other. The goal is to find a way back to love and unity and honesty- both with ourselves and each other. ***Lyric Video can be found here: youtu.be/K38AztmgCgs

lyrics

Song Title: The Lie We Live
Artists: Tesstamona and NuBorne


(Verse 1)

You stand before me a grown man with a child’s mind
You are a waste of life and time
tell me why

Im sick of your words all they spewin is venom
I know how you operate lying ass women
I wish you would listen, that out of the question
you cause most the problems, thats all that im sayin

I tell no lies this is your sermon
solid truth for a garbage ass human
gave the chance to the honest and you gaslit like a bitch

Im garbage for what for not wanting your drama
And all of your toxins are causing the problems

Im always the bad guy
But we live the same lie

(Hook)

We sell our soul to uphold the lie we live
Paralyzed with fear of being rejected
The truth is deep down we know we need eachother
But we hide ourselves and walk the path of the coward

We’re all afraid that we are not enough
Driven by lust of feeling validated
We sell our soul to uphold the lie we live
Paralyzed with fear of being rejected

(Verse 2)

The baggage is mine to claim these are old wounds
On the edge of going to prison cuz I dont have a fuse
I cant take another blow
And humans I cant control
If I dont face the one in the mirror, I wont live much more

A blast from the past is this really my future
insanity’s running in circles
im scared and the mask only makes me feel better
I cant open up I dont wanna be vulnerable
we need to just stop and just get it together
these lies that we live are they just a vendetta
I know that im wrong in my ways
but its hard to just change
I want it just all to be better

(Hook)

We sell our soul to uphold the lie we live
Paralyzed with fear of being rejected
The truth is deep down we know we need eachother
But we hide ourselves and walk the path of the coward

We’re all afraid that we are not enough
Driven by lust of feeling validated
We sell our soul to uphold the lie we live
Paralyzed with fear of being rejected

(Verse 3)

Im ready to change I want you to feel better
my minds opened up and your heart I should never
be playing with like its a game please forgive me you know I got problems im open and ready
Cant keep this live the pain deep inside
and im programmed to lie thats my main alibi
and im sorry im taking away from this love
thats enough if im making a way to unite

I wanna trust you, I hope you,
are who you say you are
but I don’t trust myself no more
bull to the matador
I wanna give you, all my love, but I’ve cashed in my chips
I’ve lost hope and the pain I hide, thats the lie I live

(Hook)

We sell our soul to uphold the lie we live
Paralyzed with fear of being rejected
The truth is deep down we know we need eachother
But we hide ourselves and walk the path of the coward

We’re all afraid that we are not enough
Driven by lust of feeling validated
We sell our soul to uphold the lie we live
Paralyzed with fear of being rejected
