"Speak the Truth"

Come on, speak the truth.


Yo, it’s 23 Skidoo –
I’m always real with you because I speak the truth
And you can feel it too because the truth is strong
You can feel it every time you listen to this song
I seen liars try to prove that wrong
But with their pants on fire, man, they don’t last long
They’re burnin’ up, I’m turnin’ up the music., tellin’ you all that truth is trust.
Thus, what you give is what you get.
I like havin’ friends that don’t lie to me
And if I ever try, they can see right through me.
So I don’t waste my time hidin’ out
Hopin’ that they don’t find out what I lied about.
When I speak, they trust what they’ve heard.
That’s good ‘cause in life you just have your word.
Word! Speak honest – always keep a promise.
And your life will be so good, you’ll be astonished.

Come on, speak the truth.

I was advised by an old, wise soul
Every time you tell one lie, some more lies grow
Over those lies, some more lies that grow fivefold
Then you can’t look directly in no eyes no more.
Get so low you gotta go and hide froze
In a panic, frantic, afraid to fully be exposed
Now your walkin’ on glass on your toes, where’d you go?
Truth is that everyone around you probably really knows
Truth is the truth will set you free, won’t have to speak in code
When your words are true and honest you’ll feel so alive, bro
Be a person of integrity cause only god knows
Who you are-he created you so shine your light, glow
Cause a truth is only love, a lie is only fear
I would rather live in light than be hiding in the rear
Feelin’ great about the gal or the guy in the mirror
See, the moment that you speak the truth the lies disappear, speak the truth.


Come on, speak the truth.

What’s the truth?
It’s about more than just about facts
It means that how you feel is how you act.
You listen to your heart and then you do that
And when you speak the truth, you get the truth back.
What’s a lie? – a lie is a little disguise,
a place to hide the truth away from eyes.
But all those lies live inside your head
And trap you like flies in a spider web.
People grow every day like trees do
Speak truth, then you got some deep roots.
If you speak lies, you close so many doors
In your mind that in time you don’t know anymore
What parts are real and what parts are fake
That’s a hard mistake, ‘cause your heart will ache.
So it’s smart to take the high road and speak the truth
So everybody can believe in you, come on!

Come on, speak the truth.
