Truth & Lies - US3[00:00:00]
A child is born with no state of mind[00:00:06]
Blind to the ways of mankind[00:00:12]
But I can't find the words[00:00:14]
That properly describes[00:00:16]
The problems that arise[00:00:17]
So I gotta decide to either[00:00:18]
Keep it bottled inside[00:00:19]
Or swallow my pride[00:00:20]
But I got God on my side[00:00:21]
I'm a follow his guide[00:00:22]
So I got down on my knees apologized[00:00:23]
For all the times my son looked[00:00:25]
In his fathers eyes[00:00:28]
And saw the lies and alibis[00:00:30]
Next day to my surprise[00:00:31]
When I woke at sunrise[00:00:32]
I saw my son rise right next to me[00:00:33]
Put his hands on my head and said to me[00:00:35]
In a voice best described as heavenly[00:00:37]
The truth shall set you free[00:00:41]
Stop letting me walk around with blindness on[00:00:42]
I'm relying on you to teach me right from wrong[00:00:44]
Cause one day I'll be gone [00:00:46]
Won't be a child for long[00:00:48]
You've found your words [00:00:49]
Now go write your song[00:00:50]
Who what when where why [00:00:51]
How do I find which way to reply [00:00:54]
Ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies[00:00:56]
Surprise the truth's right in front of your eyes[00:00:58]
Who what when where why [00:01:01]
How do I find which way to reply [00:01:04]
Ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies[00:01:05]
Surprise the truth's right in front of your eyes[00:01:08]
Riddle me this[00:01:10]
You see a man slitting his wrists[00:01:11]
And he's rich[00:01:12]
Beautiful women wanna give him a kiss[00:01:13]
He was given a gift[00:01:14]
But it wasn't something he wished[00:01:15]
He'd rather throw it all away[00:01:16]
For some ignorant bliss[00:01:18]
To exist or not to exist [00:01:18]
That's a question I try to resist[00:01:20]
Deep like a bottomless pit[00:01:22]
So I swallow my pride and follow my wits[00:01:23]
My motto is this hold your head high[00:01:25]
You could call it a risk[00:01:27]
But if I can't live on my feet[00:01:29]
I'll die on my knees[00:01:31]
Sowing the seeds of the struggle[00:01:31]
I gotta be free or better yet I gotta be me[00:01:32]
I gotta believe that if the truth is a lie[00:01:34]
Then knowledge is key[00:01:36]
So yo gimme the question and let me dissect it[00:01:37]
My questions are deeper[00:01:40]
Than my jealousy's best diss[00:01:40]
An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind[00:01:41]
I gotta find what I seek[00:01:44]
Or I'll never respond[00:01:46]
Who what when where why [00:01:46]
How do I find which way to reply [00:01:49]
Ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies[00:01:51]
Surprise the truth's right in front of your eyes[00:01:54]
Who what when where why [00:01:56]
How do I find which way to reply [00:01:58]
Ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies[00:02:00]
Surprise the truth's right in front of your eyes[00:02:03]
We've been lied to we got reparations due[00:02:05]
While you're at it where's our 40 acres too [00:02:07]
Save the mule In fact you can save the bull[00:02:09]
Why should we believe[00:02:11]
Anything you say is true [00:02:13]
Been waiting too long man [00:02:14]
Them days are through[00:02:16]
We no longer cater to red white blue[00:02:16]
I posed those same questions to you know who[00:02:19]
He said Ask not what your country can do for you[00:02:21]
I said well when exactly you gonna do for us too[00:02:24]
And where will we be[00:02:25]
When it finally comes through[00:02:27]
Forget it I don't know why I'm asking you[00:02:28]
You stole our ballots too we know how you do[00:02:30]
The proud and few we never ever doubted you[00:02:32]
Until we found out how your accountants[00:02:34]
Grew fat from laying us flat [00:02:35]
Taking the rap obeying your crap[00:02:36]
Seeing the real reason[00:02:38]
That we're breaking our backs[00:02:39]
And yo we wanna know[00:02:39]
Why the leaders are gone[00:02:41]
People can die corporations treat us as pawns[00:02:42]
You can see that it's wrong[00:02:44]
But you let them lead us along[00:02:46]
They're the same corporations[00:02:47]
That you need to be strong[00:02:48]
And I know that it's a game [00:02:51]
Truth is I shoulder the blame[00:02:52]
I'm just another con artist making a claim[00:02:53]
I know I need more than[00:02:56]
My words working for change[00:02:57]
It makes me frustrated[00:02:58]
That I'm seeking personal gain but tell me[00:02:59]
Who what when where why [00:03:01]
How do I find which way to reply [00:03:03]
Ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies[00:03:05]
Surprise the truth's right in front of your eyes[00:03:08]
