Yo |
|
Truth had me up against the ropes |
|
And semi-concious without no boxing skills |
|
Fear of it makes hair on my neck grow like minoxodil |
|
Watchin the clock is ill when, faced wit the truth |
|
Parallels observing, amateur video tapes of |
|
Twenty-one top notch nypd cops get ill |
|
Fill they minds not to kill still son, never revealed |
|
True feelings, we speakin on the truth right now in itself is healing |
|
See the creator, created existence and balance |
|
At right angles, unless it was conceived and stated |
|
So whoever shall stray away from right lives wrong |
|
The deliverance of the word false opposite of truth off course |
|
Sure as my slave name sending |
|
Troy donald jamerson paves the path, enabling truth |
|
To stay stable and cling to earth! |
|
Sorta similar to the way static electricity sting see |
|
Truth brings light, light refracts off the mirror |
|
Visions of yourself and error could never clearer |
|
The truth is that you ugly, not on the outside |
|
But in the inside on the outside you frontin you lovely |
|
The discovery of these things and all are well-hidden |
|
But when you in denial of self it is forbidden, that's the truth |
|
[female singer] |
|
In due time we will find |
|
[common] *speaking behind vocals* |
|
See it everywhere, gotta recognize it |
|
Let the truth be told from young souls that become old |
|
>from days spent in the jungle, where must one go |
|
To find it, time is real, we can't rewind it |
|
Out of everybody i met, who told the truth? time did |
|
We find kids speakin cuz it's naturally in us |
|
But the false prophets by tellin us we born sinners |
|
Venders of hate, got me battlin my own mind state |
|
At a divine rate, i ain't in this just to rhyme great |
|
See the truth in the thighs of a stripper, the eyes of my nigga |
|
If it's only one, then why should it differ |
|
So constantly i seek it |
|
Wonderin why i gotta drink a six pack to speak it |
|
Took a picture of the truth and tried to develop it |
|
Had proof, it was only recognized by the intelligent |
|
Took the negative and positive, cuz niggas got to live |
|
Said i got to get more than i'm given |
|
Cuz truth'll never be heard in religion |
|
After searchin the world, on the inside what was hidden |
|
It was the truth |
|
[female singer] |
|
Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth, truth |
|
In due time, we will find |
|
[talib kweli] |
|
Check it, on my neck i still got marks from the nooses |
|
The truth it produces, fear that got niggas on the run like carl lewis |
|
The truth is my crew is the smoothest bits of saliva juices like the roots is |
|
More organic than acoustics |
|
Heavenly ? set you free and kill you in the same breath |
|
That shit you gotta get off your chest before your death, unless |
|
The way you speak is lighter than a pamphlet |
|
Cuz the truth give the words away to the planet goddammit |
|
I ran wit what god planted in my heart and i understand it |
|
To be the bring the light to the dark, breathe some life in this art |
|
This must be the truth (why?) cuz we keep marchin on (true) |
|
The truth lay the foundation of what we rockin on (true) |
|
You can't see it if you blind but we will always prevail (true) |
|
Life is like the open sea, the truth is the wind in our sail |
|
And in the end, our names is on the lips of dying men |
|
If ever crushed in the earth, we always rise again |
|
When the words of lying men sound lush like the sound of a violin |
|
The truth is there, it's just the heart you gotta find it in |
|
[female singer] |
|
You will find (7x) |
