The Truth
H.O.T. Ones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Crossing our fingers we'd turn out okay
No faith in the world 'cause we doubted ourselves
But in time came to find hard times made us strong
But now the fear in me is gone
I found the truth within, I'm strong
Only afraid of never knowing
Do you still feel all alone and betrayed?
Kicking yourself for mistakes that you made
Well, it's time to stand up and set yourself free
The future is waiting while you search for what went wrong
But now the fear in me is gone
I found the truth within, I'm strong
Only afraid of never knowing
All the things I could have done
I remember all the crazy shit we used to do
It seemed like you weren't afraid of anything
We were ready to take on the fucking world
Not worried about our future at all
You know what, fuck it, we did that shit 'cause we were afraid
'Cause we were afraid our time was running out
We did not think we had the same chances as the others had
Well, guess what? We were fucking wrong
But now the fear in me is gone
I found the truth within, I'm strong
Only afraid of never knowing
All the things I could have done
And now the fear in me is gone
I found the truth within, I'm strong
Only afraid of never knowing
All the things I could have done
“The Truth” by H.O.T. Ones is a song about overcoming fear and finding inner strength. The lyrics speak to the struggle of feeling afraid and doubtful of oneself, but then learning from hard times and finding the truth within oneself to become stronger. The song also addresses regret, the fear of not knowing what could have been, and the importance of standing up and setting oneself free.
The chorus of the song is particularly powerful, repeating the phrase “But now the fear in me is gone, I found the truth within, I’m strong, only afraid of never knowing all the things I could have done.” This line is a reminder that the only real fear should be the fear of not living up to one’s potential and not taking risks.
The song speaks to a universal experience of fear and self-doubt that many people can relate to. It is a reminder that everyone has the potential to be strong and find the truth within themselves.

Do you remember when we were afraid?
There was a time when we were both filled with fear
Crossing our fingers we'd turn out okay

Through difficult experiences, we grew stronger
But now the fear in me is gone
We've overcome our fear and gained confidence
I found the truth within, I'm strong

Only afraid of never knowing
Our only fear is not realizing our full potential
All the things I could have done
We regret missing out on opportunities in the past
Do you still feel all alone and betrayed?
Do you still feel like you have no one and have been let down?
Kicking yourself for mistakes that you made
Feeling guilty and regretful for past errors
Well, it's time to stand up and set yourself free
It's time to take action and liberate yourself
The future is waiting while you search for what went wrong
The future is full of potential, but we must first examine what held us back in the past
I remember all the crazy shit we used to do
We reminisce about the wild times we had in the past
It seemed like you weren't afraid of anything
You appeared fearless and invincible

Not worried about our future at all
We didn't think much about what lay ahead

Only afraid of never knowing
Our only fear is not realizing our full potential
All the things I could have done
We regret missing out on opportunities in the past

The preperation and thought into these interviews are impressive and entertaining. You are absolutely killing it Sean Evans. Get another marvel actor on here, R.D.J, Hemsworth, Evan's or Renner.
Nick on the Radio
Sean Evans is easily one of the greatest host and interviewer that's ever lived.

Khaled's hot ones episode was hilarious for all the wrong reasons. It's pretty funny to see future guests make fun of him
