Lyrics India.Arie – The Truth

Spoken:
Let me tell you why I love him

Chorus:
Cause he is the truth

Verse 1:
I remember the very first day that I saw him
I found myself immediately intrigued by him
Its almost like I knew this man from another life
Like back then maybe I was his husband and maybe he was my wife
And even, the things I don’t like about him are fine with me
Because its not hard for me to understand him because he’s so much like me
And its truly my pleasure to share his company
And I know that it’s God’s gift to breathe the air he breathes

Repeat Chorus

Verse 2:
How can the same man that makes me so mad
-do you know what he did-
spoken
Turn right around and kiss me so soft
-girl do you know what he did-
spoken
If he ever left me, I wouldn’t even be sad, no
Cause there’s a blessing in every lesson
And I’m glad that I knew him at all

Repeat Chorus

I love the way he speaks

-you know what I’m talking about-
spoken
Thats the way I feel
-and I always will-
spoken

There ain’t no substitute for the truth
either it is or isnt
cause he is the truth
you see the truth it, needs no proof
either it is or it isnt
Cause he is the truth
Now you know the truth by the way it feels
and if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly
cause he is yes he is
I wonder does he know
