Default lights will not turn off

i start the truck, the lights come on, even with the switch off. it never did that before and would like to find out the reason why. just wondering if this happened to anyone else? its gotta be either the switch or the fuse or a wire grounding out right? im lost please help lol

DRL (daytime running lights) maybe? Or do the tail lights turn on as well?

I had the same problem a few years ago, turned out to be a faulty sensor for the automatic headlights.
