i tell it how it is
A dumb excuse people use when they don't know how to keep their mouth shut and they're too proud to admit they're wrong
'I tell it how it is', I told my friend I was right and he was wrong
'I tell it how it is', I told my dad I didn't need help with my car and now it's broken
'I tell it how it is', I told my crush I didn't like him and now he won't stop texting me
