I've lived my life in search of the truth
Now I know I've searched in vain
From all I gathered is no truth
But just the truest lies avail

WHO is here, to tell the truth?
Is he the one being fed lies
Or those that carve some lies as truth
Maybe loyalty is the color of truth

If the truth is genuinely our freedom
Why are we still trapped in walls
I guess the truth is history
Or just some historical lies

I searched afresh in the house of God
The only place the truth should abound
Only to find that what they preach
Are the truest lies avail

In my recent search for the truth
I searched relentlessly without
It's not without but just within
The truth is what I say is

Trust and faith are the elements of truth
The claim that loyalists validate
The only ones that know the truth
Are those that see the truth within
