The Truth lyrics

It was good to be there in the bright lights, whoa

But I lost good friends under the spotlight, whoa

Imagine if everybody knew your name

But they had nothing nice to say, nothing nice to say

It was good to be living up the high life, whoa

But a comedown's harder in the headlines, whoa

Everybody tells you, you should play the game

But there's only you to play, there's only you to play

Well, I tried

I set fire to the glory

I set fire to the dream

I set fire to the only thing

That lead me from the streets

Don't tell me it's over

'Coz I don't want to believe

'Coz now I've opened my eyes

And I have found a way to breathe

The truth sets me free

I broke my back to make a breakthrough, whoa

I lost my mind, look what it came to, oh

I had to lose it all so I could understand, whoa

I was just a boy in the shadow of a man

I set fire to the glory

I set fire to the dream

I set fire to the only thing

That lead me from the streets

Don't tell me it's over

'Coz I don't want to believe

'Coz now I've opened my eyes

And I have found a way to breathe

Oh, the truth sets me free

Oh, the truth sets me free

I set fire to the glory

I set fire to the dream

I set fire to the only thing

That lead me from the streets

Don't tell me it's over

'Coz I don't want to believe

'Coz now I've opened my eyes

And I have found a way to breathe

Oh, the truth sets me free

Oh, it sets me free

Oh, the truth sets me

It sets me free

Oh, the truth sets me free

Oh, it sets me free

Oh, the truth sets me free

Oh, it sets me

Oh, it sets me free
