: If the phrase used is "a tissue of lies" what is its opposite, is there a something of truth?

'tissue' means an organisation of similar component parts - used in biology, it means a collection of cells.
'tissue' is thin and flexible paper made from a fibrous structure.

a tissue of lies is thus a construction to deceive which is flexible yet thin.

the opposite might be a 'bastion of truth' - a solid defensive structure set on sound foundations easily seen and dominating its surroundings.
