Speak the Truth
by Temple Yard

Album: Temple Yard

I may have said, a thing or two
To make you feel, the way you do
Well you know I've never been one, to ever hold back

Did I share, too openly
I tried to give it to you gracefully
And it still appears, that I ruffled your feathers

Don't you harbor, any bitterness
~Chorus~
Let's reason here, I'll make it clear
I will only speak, the truth in love
Let's say it here, I'll make it clear
I will only speak, the truth in love

I really know, that it's your life
But being close, you must confide
'Cause the fact is, well I am your brother

You say my words were too severe
I won't tell you what you want to hear
Let alone sit back, and watch you go under

You've got to know
I really care for you
~Chorus~

Let us speak the truth, in love
(You have to take a little time to tell me what's on your mind)
Let us speak the truth, in love
(The truth it hits you like a bomb from behind)
Let us speak the truth, in love
(You are me brethren and me nah tell no lie)
Let us speak the truth, in love
(Me never hide back me mouth when you pass me by)

I've got this burden on my heart again
Whoaoah
Ever since you came into my life
I said I will not, let it go on like this
I'll call it like it really is
Can't you see my love for you is strong

Let us speak the truth, in love
(You have to take a little time to tell me what's on your mind)
Let us speak the truth, in love
(The truth it hits you like a bomb)

Now that I just said my peace
It's time for you to feel the squeeze 'cause you're running fast
And headed for trouble

It's a path I'm familiar with
So don't you call me a hypocrite
'Cause you know my friend, I'll never judge you
(Oh no)

~Chorus~
I will only speak, the truth in love
I will only speak the truth in love
(You have to take a little time to tell me what's on your mind)
