Lie Lie Lie

Started off a simple lie, just to get my foot in the door Told 'em I could use Excel, but I ain't never used it before Boss was like "Yo, make a spreadsheet", handed me a floppy disk I'm like "What the fuck is this? We ain't in 1996!" But I couldn't let 'em know, so I just wing that shit YouTube tutorials all night while sniffing lines of Ritalin Came back, showed the boss, he's like "Damn, this shit is fire! I'ma need you to run payroll, think you could take us higher?" Now the lie's getting deeper and the plot is getting thicker I'm in charge of people's money, every minute feelin' sicker Pressure's building up inside, my brain's about to hemorrhage Gotta keep this front up, 'cause I can't afford my rent, bitch! Lie, lie, lie, my way up to the top Fake it 'til I make it, then I'll probably get caught Lie, lie, lie, diggin' my own grave But I can't stop now, I'm on a one-way train Now I'm the CFO, got the corner office with a view I'm makin' big decisions, but I don't have a fuckin' clue Embezzlin' funds on the low, just to maintain my lifestyle Snortin' coke in the bathroom, I'm goin' buck fuckin' wild! IRS starts an audit, I'm alterin' documentation Every number fabricated across the whole damn nation I'm seconds from confessing it all, ready to come clean Until the CEO busts in and says "You're a motherfucking machine!" Lie, lie, lie, my way up to the top Fake it 'til I make it, then I'll probably get caught Lie, lie, lie, diggin' my own grave But I can't stop now, I'm on a one-way train Everybody thinks I'm God, but I'm just livin' a lie Employees worship me like a messiah in a suit and tie Paranoia sets in, as I'm drivin' home in my new Range Rover Red and blue in my rear view "Sir, do you know why I pulled you over?" I reach into the glove box, the cop pulls his Glock Headline reads "CFO killed in routine traffic stop!" But surprise, it was a dream! I'm passed out face down on my desk Drool and cocaine residue all over these bounced checks I'm losin' grip on reality, can't tell what's real or my heaven Wakin' up to margin calls, night terrors 'bout embezzlement Lie, lie, lie, my way up to the top Fake it 'til I make it, then I'll probably get caught Lie, lie, lie, diggin' my own grave But I can't stop now, I'm on a one-way train Now the SEC is at the door, my time is runnin' thin Shredding documents, delete hard drives, burnin' shit! I try to make a run for it, escape out the back But I trip on some cables and I'm flat on my ass! Handcuffs click, Miranda rights, I'm headed to the pen With nothing but my lies as my coworkers eyes condemn As I'm sittin' in my cell, starin' at the walls I realize that my lies were my curtain calls The show is over now, the jig is finally up I'm another con man who ran out of luck But even as I face the judge, ready for my sentence I lean into the mic and say "Your honor, in my defense-" Lie, lie, lie, my way up to the top Fake it 'til I make it, then I'll probably get caught Lie, lie, lie, diggin' my own grave But I can't stop now, I'm on a one-way train
