The Truth Lyrics - Talib Kweli

Pharoahe Monch-Verse 1: 

 

Yo 

Truth had me up against the ropes 

and semi-conscious 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

Common-Verse 2: 

 

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 'cause 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, 'cause niggas got to live 

Said I got to get more than I'm given 

'cause truth'll never be heard in religion 

After searchin the world, on the inside what was hidden 

It was the truth

Talib Kweli-Verse 3: 

 

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 roll 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 

'cause the truth give the words the weight of a 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?) 'cause 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
