Honest

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Everybody wants to be real But sometimes you can lose the ones you truly hold dear Would you be so obsessed about being a hunnid If that meant that you would wind up being lonely How would you feel? Would you still be real? [Pre-Chorus] 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- [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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? And ain't nobody perfect, but you still decide to pick a target Oh yeah [Pre-Chorus] 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- [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] 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 [Chorus] 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
