Lyrics
You nag me and you haunt me
You constantly criticize and trouble me
And you tell me dirty lies
You tell deceitful falsehoods
You think you've pulled it off
You believe you've successfully deceived me
But for some time I've realized
I've been aware of your actions for a while
That everything you do is to drive me from my mind
Your every action is intended to disturb my peace of mind
I've been listening to the silence for your tiptoes in the night
I've been attentive to the quietness, listening for your presence in the night
I'm wise, wise to you
I am knowledgeable and perceptive, not easily fooled
You've never faced the day when judgement comes to town
You have not faced the consequences when judgment is delivered
You've been dealing from the bottom, dealing dirty, deep, and down
You've engaged in dishonest dealings, playing at a low level
You got yourself a boyfriend who'll be comin' 'round tonight
You've found a partner who will be visiting tonight
While I'm outside aworkin' and doing overtime
I'm outside working hard and putting in extra hours
I'm wise, wise to you
I am aware and not easily deceived
You think it's sugar powder 'cause everything's so sweet
You believe everything is perfect, but it's not
When you melt away the glaze of all the people that you see
When you remove the superficial appearance, the truth becomes apparent
The more I'm educated, the more I hang on the cord
The more I learn, the more I hold on to reality
You can cut the lies 'cause I know what's going on
You can't deceive me anymore because I understand the truth
I'm wise, wise to you
I am knowledgeable and perceptive, not easily fooled
