Truth (3)
Although Truth never officially released an LP while they were together, in 1995 a 68-minute CD was salvaged from 1969-70 recordings. Most of them were made for a soundtrack of an obscure film, with three other tracks coming from a Chicago studio session during the brief time in which Ray Elliott was in the band. Perhaps to the surprise of some listeners aware of Truth's Them connections, there's not much of a hard R&B-blues-British Invasion influence. It's far more reminiscent of late-'60s California guitar psychedelia, along the lines of some of the more economic and harmony-driven bands in that style, like Moby Grape and (more distantly) Love.
In this respect, Truth recall Fat Mattress (Noel Redding's group), another act with heavy British Isles roots that took major cues from West Coast harmonized psych, though Truth and Fat Mattress aren't extremely similar. Truth play late-'60s psychedelic rock with a breezy lightness, yet with some guts, anchored by extremely versatile guitar lines by the underrated Jim Armstrong. The songs might not be classic, but they're very pleasant go-with-the-flow period sequences of images, with one vocal (on "Blackboard Words") closely approximating the sound of late-'60s Roger McGuinn. On "Sonic Sitar," the group expands upon the raga-rock explored in the post-Van Morrison Them's best cut, "Square Room," and in fact "Archimed's Pad (Squared Room)" is an impressive instrumental remake of "Square Room" that's an underrated highlight of the whole raga-rock genre, with its hypnotic drawn-out interplay of drones and Indian-influenced guitar melodies. The three songs recorded with Ray Elliott on flute and piano go into jazzier grooves with good effect, adding nice icing to a record that's on the whole better (and certainly more consistent) than either of the late-'60s Them albums on which some of the Truth musicians played.

American rapper. Born December 15, 1976.
Truth (6) Christian Gospel
"During the late '60s, John Roger Breland had a dream of starting a Christian band. His goal was to share the message of the Gospel through music. In June of 1971 Breland's dream became a reality with the formation of the group, Truth, an acronym for "Trust, Receive, Unchangeable, True Happiness" in Jesus. The group performed its first tour with only 15 members. Some were barely out of high school. For the first several years of their existence, the group performed 400 concerts annually and traveled 50 weeks of the year. As Truth became more established, they performed 260 live concerts each year, and spent the rest of the time in recording studios. By the beginning of the 21st century, Truth had 22 members, and had traveled to all 50 American states and 21 different countries. The group had produced almost 60 albums and performed before more than ten million people in over 9,000 concerts. In 2000, Truth was accepted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame. The Truth Legacy Collection was released in 2001, shortly after the group performed its farewell tour." from Diana Moes VandeHoef, All Music Guide
They have re-grouped for a 40th Annivesary Tour and with a new melody CD of their works. Several hit artists evolved from the TRUTH, such as Avalon, Natilie Grant and others.
Let Me In
Truth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just left up out the bank
'Bout to meet up with the gang
Yeah we got some moves to make
Shawty thick, make sum' shake
Hit the gas, I'm outer space
Niggas all up in my face
I ain't got the time of day
Niggas be claiming they real, but they really so fake, I swear they so fraud
Carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders was getting so heavy, I gave it to God
Shout out my brothers, we in this forever, stay solid like boulders, that's all that we got
Let me out! (Let me out)
Let me out! (Let me out)
Let me out! (Let me out)
Yeah I did it by myself and I ain't need no hand out
They thought I was cappin' when I was rappin', so I pulled the bands out
I remember they was hating, now they all some fans now
And I started in the basement, tryna find my way out
Treat my city like a playground
No we do not play 'round
Get up off yo' ass, nigga why you tryna lay 'round
Blowing on that strong
Call it Hercules
Shawty what you want?
Why you bother me ? yeah
Did it on my own, they wishing they could be
A young fly nigga, man I do this shit too easy
Cooking in the stu', you know it get a lil' greasy
Higher than a satellite, so dawg you can not reach me
Feeling like I'm Jordan, yeah I'm bout to get a 3 peat
Please don't try this at home, dawg this is not TV
Ready, Set, Go!
I'm about to take off
Pull up in the whip so fast, damn near blew the face off
These niggas just wanna call foul, my nigga just play ball
I just broke up out the matrix, I went awol
Feeling like I'm Neo, I'm renewed in the head
I stay ready, so I don't have to get ready, I'm prepared
Yeah I hate to break it to you shawty, really never cared
Switch my flows like my clothes, dawg, I don't know what to wear
