I am on the verge of being thrown out of the house. I have lied and cheated my way through some classes I was taking, and the result is failed certification tests and many questions that are not answered. I have lied to my parents for a very long time, and always the same results, I am always caught. If I knew how to come up with a plan I would do so. unfortunately I do not know how to because my parents have done it for me. I need help. I am coming to you all for help because I don't feel that the normal people understand me. please help

The first step is to stop lying to your parents.
Then, you may want to consider what you would like to do, perhaps you lied about these classes because you felt pressure to take them but hated them and didn't want to go on that path.
You are only 20 years old, so there is plenty of time for you to figure out what you want to do, like try different things until you find something that you like.
Ask for support from your parents on this, like some time to figure out what you want to do.

Can you memorize stuff? I'm Linux + certified but I don't know a damn thing about Linux. I found a "brain dump" online, memorized about 600 questions and the correct answers and passed it. 600 questions and answers may sound like a lot but it really isn't. Worth a try, maybe.

If you're talking about IT, the knowledge for the certs isn't that big a deal. It just gets your foot in the door. You'll learn what you need to on the job.

The logical thing to do would be to stop lying, as it is self defeating and makes life difficult. If you are not doing well in your classes, say so, and discuss with your parents why you are struggling.
