PRETTYMUCH – Lying (Official Video) ft. Lil Tjay

Lyrics:
[VERSE]
Sorry to call you so unexpected (it’s PRETTYMUCH)
Thought you’d be sleeping
I was gonna leave a message
In case you’re wondering
I’m counting blessings
Just bought this California king
And it’s expensive

[PRE-CHORUS]
Haven’t picked a side yet hardly sleep
I been going out (oh yeah, oh yeah)
You did me a favor honestly
I’m so much better now (oh yeah, oh yeah)

[CHORUS]
But I’m lying when I talk to you
Cause you’re lying under someone new
And I’m dying wanna tell the truth
I’m not oh, I’m not oh, I’m not over you
But I’m lying when I talk to you
Cause you’re lying under someone new
And I’m dying wanna tell the truth
I’m not oh, I’m not oh, I’m not over you, yeah

[POST]
It hits me right in the chest
But I still wish you the best
Until I see you again

[VERSE]
I see them pictures (I see them pic) from your vacation (from your vacation)
You look so happy holding hands congratulations (congratulate)
And if it sound like (and if it sound like)
My voice is shaking (and if it sound like)
It’s cause I’m way up in the hills
My signals breaking

[PRE-CHORUS]
Haven’t picked a side yet hardly sleep
I’ve been going out (I’m going out)
You did me a favor honestly
I’m so much better now (oh yeah, oh yeah)

[CHORUS]
But I’m lying when I talk to you
Cause you’re lying under someone new
And I’m dying wanna tell the truth
I’m not oh, I’m not oh, I’m not over you
But I’m lying when I talk to you
Cause you’re lying under someone new
And I’m dying wanna tell the truth
I’m not oh, I’m not oh, I’m not over you, yeah

[RAP]
Lies, games, questions, names, that’s the reason we’re facing these things
Holding my heart now my shirt got a stain guess that’s what I get for mistreating my main
Wasn’t using my brain gotta do better
Yeah I know messed up shoulda knew better
Man I guess I’m just stuck in my ways
I’m just havin, I’m focused on new cheddar
I’m just tryna get the bag now
I done fell in love with cash now
All my feelings in the past and I had to dash you was left in last round
You was really ‘post to ride with me
Keep it a hundred don’t lie to me
I understand that the truth hurt bad but it’s too late to cry to me, yeah yeah yeah

[CHORUS]
But I’m lying when I talk to you
Cause you’re lying under someone new
And I’m dying wanna tell the truth
I’m not oh, I’m not oh, I’m not over you

[POST]
It hits me right in the chest
But I still wish you the best
Until I see you again (see you again)

It hits me right in the chest
But I still wish you the best
Don’t read my last couple texts

It hits me right in the chest
But I still wish you the best
Until I see you again (see you again)

It hits me right in the chest
But I still wish you the best
Don’t read my last couple texts

[CHORUS]
But I’m lying when I talk to you
Cause you’re lying under someone new
And I’m dying wanna tell the truth
I’m not oh, I’m not oh, I’m not over you

What is the central theme of the song and how is it visually represented in the music video?

PRETTYMUCH, the five-member boyband, has released the official music video for their latest single “Lying” featuring Lil Tjay. The video, which premiered on March 20, 2020, on YouTube, provides a captivating visual representation of the song’s lyrical content, complemented by the band’s smooth vocals and Lil Tjay’s signature rap style.

The video, directed by Thomas Trail, opens with the band sitting in what appears to be a dimly lit interrogation room. Each member is dressed in an orange jumpsuit, and their faces show a mix of fear and uncertainty, as if they have been caught in the act of something illicit. This presentation sets up the central theme of the song, which revolves around the struggle between honesty and deceit, and the consequences that come with both choices.

As the song progresses, the camera shifts between different scenes that add layers to the story. The first scene shows the band members portraying snapshots of their daily lives, engaging in activities like skateboarding, playing video games, and watching romantic movies. The second scene introduces Lil Tjay, who is shown rapping his verse while inside a grand house, surrounded by women and flashy cars. The imagery here contrasts with that of the band’s scenes, highlighting the different lives that being honest or deceitful can lead to.

The climax of the song takes place in an alleyway, where two of the band members (Brandon Arreaga and Zion Kuwonu) have a physical altercation. The scene is intense and emotional, as it vividly depicts the pain and hurt that can come with being lied to by someone you trust. The video ends with the band members reflecting on their actions, in the same interrogation room setting as the opening scene.

Overall, the “Lying” music video is a powerful visual representation of the song’s message. The contrast between the band’s scenes and Lil Tjay’s scenes, as well as the intense physical altercation, effectively brings the lyrics to life. The video is well-produced, edited, and acted, and visually tells a story that resonates with audiences universally. It shows the versatility and creative abilities of PRETTYMUCH, and highlights their strength as a cohesive unit. “Lying” featuring Lil Tjay is a must-watch for anyone who loves great music and stunning visuals.
