Tell the Truth
Twelve24 Lyrics

I grew up I crew up
I had a tough childhood.

That kid who needs love
I was a kid who just wanted to be loved.

Daddy's leaving and he ain't coming home tonight
My dad left our family and never came back.

It's my life and I fight just to breathe just to be
Life has been hard, but I'm fighting to stay alive and be myself.

In inside I'm like tell me what it's all about
On the inside, I'm searching for answers and meaning in life.

Rappers told me to smoke burn and sell coke
I've been influenced by the wrong crowd and told to do bad things.

My mum ma told me that life will you know hope
Despite the struggles, my mom gave me hope for a better life.

Dad found his truth down the bottom of the bottle
My dad coped with his pain by drinking and became an alcoholic.

I'm just a kid I don't know who to follow
As a kid, I didn't know who to look up to for guidance.

Then you came like a knight and shinning amour
But then you came into my life and changed everything.

You said son won't you let me be your father
You offered to be my father figure.

I started crying like that all that I wanted
I was so grateful and emotional at the thought of having someone to look up to.

Jesus you're the best thing that happened to me
I found hope and salvation in Jesus, and it was the best thing to ever happen to me.

It all about you and all you do
This song is all about you and your love.

Can these words be left unsaid
These words are too important to leave unspoken.

If I don't speak out how would they know
If I don't speak out, no one will know about your amazing love.

So I get to tell the truth
So I'm telling the truth about how wonderful you are.

How you gave you it all
You gave your all for us.

All for Love so I open up and give you all me Life
I'm giving you my all in return because of your love.

This Love is amazing oo a oo a oo x2
Your love is truly amazing.

I had enough
I'm tired of living a life of sin.

Stupid riddles
I'm done with the confusing and pointless things in life.

Tired of been played like a second fiddle
I'm tired of being treated like I'm not important.

I got love
But now I have love in my heart.

Not a little
A lot of love.

Sick of been being stuck in the middle
I'm done with being in the middle of conflict and confusion.

Your amazing I can't change it
You are truly amazing, and I wouldn't change a thing about you.

Your the greatest thought I'd let you know
I just want to let you know that you are the greatest.

And when these walls come crushing down
Even when things get tough and the world seems to be against me,

I know that you're still writing the pages of my life
I know that you still have amazing things planned for my life.

and I'm praying that you put me on stages so can make you famous
I want to use my life to give you glory and make your name known to the world.

Said I use to be a sinner now I'm forgiving
I used to live a life of sin, but now I have been forgiven.

I use to be so better but you change me forever now
You have changed me for the better, and it's a permanent change.

I (tell the truth) you (you the truth) yea (the whole truth and nothing but it) x2
I'm telling the truth about your greatness, and you are the truth - the whole truth, and nothing but it.

Tell the truth you the truth the whole truth and nothing but it x2
Let's keep telling the truth about you because it's the only thing that matters.

This Love is amazing
Your love truly is amazing.
