Truth In The World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've been riskin' my life all these years
Protectin' you from all the wrongs you did, mon
I did all dis because of your promises
Promise me you will die when I die
Promise that when trouble comes my way
You're gonna be there
No matter when the devil comes
I know dat in a I and I door
You were not there to be found
When the devil comes knockin' in my door
You were not there to be found
The world is turning around
Yesterday becomes tomorrow
When life was said to be true
And truth said to be lies, yeah, yeah, yeah
No truth in the world
No truth in the world
Like a preacher in church
Who preaches until he's run down his face
And when the sun goes down he's holy again
When the sun goes down he's a witch
And he's doin' all dis in the way God wants it to be
The world is turning around
When today becomes tomorrow
When lies becomes truth
The future becomes the call
No truth in the world (Ya gone a mark ago)
No truth in the world (The truth is not truth)
No truth in the world (The world)
No truth in the world (Ya gone a mark)
No truth in the world (No truth in the world)
No truth in the world (When the man a pon get out the church)
No truth in the world (The preacher man acts just like a nice man)
No truth in the world (There is no truth)
