The Truth (Explicit) - Kae Tempest

It's all relative right

One thought many thinkers

One flame many cinders

One view many windows

Love in a time without sacrifice

We want what we want

And what's more we deserve it

We run around panicking

Nervous thinking

Could this be the one

Man they're perfect

Couple years later

You're chained to the circuit

Breaking them down

As if you're determined to

Waste what you've found

But what's true about you

Is it the things that you claim to be true

Or is it deeper

Lurking in places that you

Don't dare to journey to

Faced with a new

Way of seeing it

Are you type to accept

Or the type to clench fists and reject

Whose truth even counts

Is it the person who doubts

What a person proclaims they're about

Whose version is perfect

Is there a truth that exists

Outside of perception

This is the question

It's true if you believe it

The world is the world

But it's all how you see it

One man's flash of lightning

Ripping through the air

Is another's passing glare it's hardly there

Two people belive it

The world is the world

But it's all how you see it

One man's flash of lightning ripping through the air

Is another's passing glare it's hardly there

Two people

One thinks two's deceitful

Two thinks one's plain evil

One loved two so much it was like worship

Two thought one was perfect

One said to two

I'm awful trust me

You're so pure that you should not touch me

Two said

I don't care I love you

I can't wait to know you

One said

I'm scared I will show you

The bad side that I don't like

Two said

Be yourself and I will be myself

We don't need no one else

With their opinions

The past is gone let's move on

Make present

Two said

Ok you're the best

Well you know the rest

It all went sour

And now two thinks one is mad for power

One thinks two tried to devour

Everything that made one one

But two thinks one got two too wrong

So if there's one truth that lasts forever

Can two truths ever exist together

If one loves two but two don't love

Whose truth is true and is truth enough

It's true if you believe it

The world is the world

But it's all how you see it

One man's flash of lightning ripping through the air

Is another's passing glare it's hardly there

It's true if you believe it

The world is the world

But it's all how you see it

One man's flash of lightning ripping through the air

Is another's passing glare it's hardly there

In the back of the cab

The girls look at each other like

What the **** was that

I thought it was that in da club one

I don't know says the driver I never liked rap

Well can't you put it on magic then

Or something like that
