I Lied - Nicki Minaj

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

I lied, I lied, I lied

To keep you from breaking my heart

Even though I said I didn’t love you (Love you, love you)

I lied, I lied

Even though I said I didn’t need you

I lied, I lied

To keep you from breaking my heart, ooh

To keep you from breaking my heart, ooh

Even though I said, «Don't touch me» (Touch me, touch me)

I lied, I lied

I can’t fall for you, can’t give my all to you

Can’t let you think that I’ma let the game stall for you

Gotta protect me, you gotta sweat me

You said you thought you was ready and I said, «Let's see»

But I ain’t mean that, I need some fuckin' proof

'Cause what happens if I fall in love then you cut me loose?

You just a heartbreaker, won’t let you break mine

'Cause I’ll be smashin' windows and cuttin' them brake lines

I lied

'Cause who knew that if I just let myself go with you

Who knows?

Who knows?

So, I lied

To keep you from breaking my heart, ooh

To keep you from breaking my heart, ooh

Even though I said, «Fuck you» (Fuck you, fuck you)

I lied, I lied

I thought eventually, you would let me go

That was my insecurities and my ego

Missed my jump shot, missed my free throw

Miss the way we kiss, miss the D, yo

Man, it was good while it lasted

That shit wasn’t real, it was magic

If it was a record, it woulda been classic

But fuck you though, orgasmic (Orgasmic)

I guess this what I gotta do to keep me from fallin', stallin' the truth

Who knew what you’d do if I let you in?

My mama ain’t raised no fool, I

I’m not your usual, typical type

Who would protect me if I never hide?

Fallin' so fast, I’m afraid of you

So I lied

I lied, I lied

To keep you from breaking my heart, ooh

To keep you from breaking my heart, ooh, whoa

I lied, ooh, baby

Ooh

'Cause who knew that if I let myself go with you (Ooh)

It’s over now, goodbye, love (Ah, oh)

You’ll stay, you’ll stay in my heart (You'll stay in my heart) forever
