Stop Lying (To Yourself)

 

You say you don’t lie, but deep down, you know,
The truth isn’t easy—it’s harder to show.
You tell yourself stories to soften the pain,
But each little lie is a link in your chain.

​

Oh, step into light, see what is true,
Face what you fear and let it undo.
No more deception, no more disguise,
Freedom begins when you open your eyes.

​

You swear you’ll start fresh—tomorrow is near,
Yet promises fade when excuses appear.
You plan out your day with a hopeful refrain,
Still clinging to lies that you’ll “somehow” sustain.

​

You think you know others, assume what they feel,
But truth isn’t guessed—it’s something that’s real.
You judge and you label, you’re sure that you’re right,
Yet blind to the facts that could bring you to light.

​

Oh, step into light, see what is true,
Face what you fear and let it undo.
No more deception, no more disguise,
Freedom begins when you open your eyes.

​

You’re scared of the risk, so you bury the doubt,
But courage is stepping beyond the way out.
Each moment you question, each lie you erase,
You open a path to a stronger embrace.

​

So stop with the stories, the tricks of the mind,
The truth may seem harsh, but it isn’t unkind.
Unchain yourself now, don’t wait for someday,
Step into truth—let the lies fade away.
