The truth
a.k.a.dRESS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And I've collected all these thoughts
And I'm dying just to lose them
And if Your words are true or not
I'll die trying to prove them
But I'll just have to accept
That my mind is so inept
And that the only thing that's left
For me to do is to trust you

Convince me because I really need your help
Convince me, because I can't see this former self

I'll put the emphasis on the evidence,
Begging for the proof
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth

This is so unnerving, I know you've never lied to me before
But the things you're telling me, I can't yet believe, yet can't ignore
But I'll just have to accept
That my mind is so inept
And that the only thing that's left
For me to do is to trust you

I'll put the emphasis on the evidence,
Begging for the proof
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
So to place our lives into Your hands
Confide in what you do
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth

Its the world full of cynics
You say to stay alive in it,
You've got to stick with what you know
But the soul is always aching
For the heart to start taking,
A chance by letting go(So let go(let go))
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth

So to place our lives into Your hands
Confide in what you do
Sometimes when you're trying to sleep
When all your doubts and your faith don't agree
It's cause

Hello Deja, I just wanted to thank you for your many helpful videos relating to Greek life. Due to your advice and other influencer's advice, I was able to join my organization. Please continue to make these helpful videos and succeed. I can now proudly say Hey PHam!

How long was your process

Ms. Bizlady

No man made organization is perfect. Church or Sorority. One has to go in with the mindset of service. The more you serve the more you get to know people in the chapter. Each chapter has its own values and mores. One has to remember that from sociology classes.
