Truth Is Lyrics

My past was all I knew

I knew it like the back of my hand

Gave it all to you

You say "someday" I will understand

"Leave it all behind

Dust it out the corners of your mind

It ain't that hard to do"

It ain't easy to do

Somedays

I miss old best friend

I miss the old days

But now I'm free from sin

I'm not trying to kill myself no more

You gave me so much to live for

Call me Ms. Malcolm

Caught in the middle of the old and the new

Old and the new

Truth is growth is hard

It's long

It's painful and I

Put it in all of my songs

Trying to come to grips with it

Oh, I'm still trying to come to grips with it

Now, I know why Martha was so mad

Though, Laz's death was out of her hands

Call me Martha or Mary

Cuz it don't feel too good to bury a life that I once had

Somedays

I miss old best friend

I miss the old days

But now I'm free from sin

And not trying to kill myself no more

You gave me so much to live for

Somedays I think Jonah was misunderstood

His destiny preceded him on foot

Well, you can just call me Ms. Jonah

Cuz sometimes I want to run away from what is for my good

It's working for my good

Truth is growth is good

It's great

You learn

You shed the pain, the hurt

All your mistakes

And God He does not waste a thing

To Him, it's all just pottery and we're clay

The truth is

I'm not fond of change but

It's unnatural for things to just stay the same

Caterpillar to a butterfly

Your cocoon, It cannot be your life

Ou

The truth is moving on is fun

Cuz if you want a fresh start

The Lord will surely give you one

In spite of all the things you've done (Ah, aye)

His love is unconditional (Ah)

Ah

Truth Is
