The Truth Hurts
2024 by Lee Knox

You say you can take it but the moment I said it, it hurt
Don’t wanna hurt you love
We both know what pain does
But I have an obligation to myself to always speak the truth
If I held it it’d become a lie
But I hate it when I see you cry
I protect you, since the day I met you, what you wanna do I’ll let you, that’s why I sweat you
That’ll never change, my love is for you’s never the same, it’s be a damn shame, if we went wrong and I’m to blame
Sit right here, it’s a safe place baby
There’s some things I must say
Don’t have an axe to grind, just a few things on my mind
So we can be stronger today

(Chorus)
I’d never purposely hurt you
If I did I never intended to
We can’t be in something and be stuck
We have to be honest keep it a buck
Truth hurts once but a lie can last a lifetime
Be enough to make you lose your mind
Truth hurts, truth hurts, the truth hurts once, but a lie will last a lifetime

See, that wasn’t bad as your expected and it’s all out now, we heal
That’s all I wanted for us
So we grow and build our trust
I want a two way street where we can be this way
Not trying to make you down
By addressing this now
God knows I protect you, felt that since the day I met you, what you wanna do I’ll let you, that’s why I swear you
And that’ll never change, my love for you’s never the same, it’s be a damn shame, if we went wrong and I’m to blame
Don’t just hear my words feel the love in my eyes
Wouldn’t have said it if I didn’t care
Hope you get to a place you know, where

(Chorus)



(Rap)
If you feel the need to lie to me you might as well keep it moving
I’d rather you cut me off completely or better yet even sue me
At least at that point I know a friend from an enemy
Only thing that’s worse is someone pretending that they into me
Keep a lie living you just as wrong as bad check
A truth you can get over but a lie is easy to regret
It’s like believing it was night your whole and it was day
How could you look at them the same years of missing light to play
Don’t know a lie is running and you just keep it in the street
Cause when the truth comes out and you’re connect, let me see
First Imma cut you off, just like a tomato with a soft
Spot on it’s understand side, Imma act as though you died
You keep non fact alive don’t come telling me that you love me
When your actions have already proven you’ve put a lie above me
The truth hurt once, that’s real, but a lie will last a lifetime
When I confront you with the evidence please don’t start that crying
