Lyrics
True
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.
Everybody tells us what to do, do, do
Think they always know what's good for you, you, you
We know they don't really have a clue, clue, clue
People like to tell you what to think, think, think
Sometimes it feels right to do the wrong, wrong thing
Let it go and listen to your own instincts
'Cause you don't need nobody else
When you are true, true to yourself
You're skin and bone, you're full of fear
But you are just a human being
(No matter what they do)
Always said we're gonna be true
We will never change, we will never change
They could never do it better
Than when we are, are together
Always said we're gonna be true
We will never change, we will never change
They could never do it better
Than when we are, are together
Don't need to add nothing to your skin, skin, skin
Be happy with the body that you're in, in, in
Being who you are don't cost a thing, thing, thing
'Cause you don't need nobody else
When you are true, true to yourself
You're skin and bone, you're full of fear
But you are just a human being
(No matter what they do)
Always said we're gonna be true
We will never change, we will never change
They could never do it better
Than when we are, are together
Always said we're gonna be true
We will never change, we will never change
They could never do it better
Than when we are, are together
No matter what they do
Always said we're gonna be true
We will never change, we will never change
They could never do it better
Than when we are, are together
Always said we're gonna be true
We will never change, we will never change
They could never do it better
Than when we are, are together
