LYRICS: Speak the Truth

woke up this morning and I turn on the news
I can't believe my eys
they are deceiving, manipulating
right before the public eyes

and politicians keep lying
issuing statements falsifying
the truth they keep denying
this very state is terrifying

(chorus:)
now is the time when you speak the truth
can get you inna trouble
now is the time when you speak the truth
can get you inna problem

(verse 2:)
investigative journalism
and social media activism
fake news and populism
Rasta nah bow to no devilism

wistle blowers, ganja growers, church goers, truth sowers
got to be strong and be wise
the truth is an offence, but it's not a sin
it will reveal right in front of our eyes

(bridge:)
so don't worry, 'cause JAH JAH never fail I&I yet, no, no (repeat 1x)
through the darkest of ages, we been through those stages

(chorus)

(verse 3:)
see and blind, hear and deaf can never solve the problem,
what can we do to solve them
hold on to the truth, and nothing but the truth
but beware of the wolve pack

'cause they will crucify you and deny you, spread all kinda lie about you
won't even care to sacrifice
but I'd rather be free speaking the truth
than to live in a world of lies

(bridge)

(chorus repeat till end)
