Lyrics

Because It’s The Truth

(Music - M. Novak, Lyrics - M. Novak, C. Webster)

You might not believe me so look up the facts
Don’t get all your knowledge from the cable news hacks
The truth is out there but it’s not on the fringe
The lies they sell us make an honest man cringe

The truth can be crushed by mistrust and hate
The media thrives when fears the constant state
A grain of truth buried deep in the sand
When truth and lies equally stand

CHORUS:

Because it’s the truth doesn’t mean that you’ll like it
Do you only look at the like minded views
Because it’s the truth doesn’t mean that you’ll like it
Don’t turn a blind eye and believe what they do


It’s up to each one of us to break the liar’s hold
Are we smart enough to know the truth when it’s told
Lies can find their way into the voting booth
But the hard facts remain because they’re the truth

In the past a man was only as good as his word
Now we have politicians that lie at every turn
Lies often repeated makes them no longer lies
These new values will make an honest man cry

CHORUS:

When the blind allegiance proves to fail
The promises given are soon derailed
When the leader’s approval starts to slide
Will the gullible fools stay on the carnival ride

When the torch of truth starts to shine again
We need a new hero who is an honest man
Truth is the path that will benefit all
The purveyors of lies will crumble and fall
