The Truth Lyrics

[00:06.67] Let me tell you why I love him
[00:09.45] 'Cause he is the truth
[00:11.49] Said he is so real
[00:13.93] And I love the way that he makes me feel
[00:19.38] And if I am a reflection of him, (mmm) then I must be fly (fly)
[00:25.66] Because his light (light) it shines so bright (bright) I wouldn't lie (no)
[00:29.85] I remember the very first day that I saw him (saw him)
[00:34.63] I found myself immediately intrigued by him (intrigued by him)
[00:40.15] It's almost like I knew this man from another life (another life)
[00:44.54] Like back then, maybe I was his husband, and maybe he was my wife
[00:49.70] And even, the things I don't like about him are fine with me (fine with me)
[00:54.26] Because it's not hard for me to understand him because he's so much like me (so much like me)
[00:59.47] And it's truly my pleasure to share his company
[01:04.31] And I know that it's God's gift to breathe the air he breathes
[01:09.28] 'Cause he is the truth
[01:11.46] Said he is so real
[01:13.91] And I love the way that he makes me feel
[01:18.93] And if I am a reflection of him (mmm) then I must be fly (fly)
[01:25.71] Because his light (light) it shines so bright (bright) I wouldn't lie (no)
[01:29.48] Ooh
[01:39.59] How can the same man that makes me so mad
[01:42.29] (Do you know what he did?) Turn right around and kiss me so soft
[01:48.69] (Girl, do you know what he did?) If he ever left me, I wouldn't even be sad, no
[01:54.32] 'Cause there's a blessing in every lesson
[01:57.23] And I'm glad that I knew him at all
[01:59.28] 'Cause he is the truth
[02:01.65] Said he is so real
[02:03.64] And I love the way that he makes me feel
[02:09.21] And if I am a reflection of him (mmm) then I must be fly
[02:15.50] Because his light it shines so bright, no
[02:22.82] I love the way he speaks
[02:25.38] I love the way he thinks
[02:27.96] I love the way that he treats his mama
[02:30.72] I love that gap in between his teeth
[02:33.31] I love him in every way that a woman can love a man
[02:38.52] From personal to universal, but most of all it's unconditional
[02:45.59] You know what I'm talking about?
[02:48.68] That's the way I feel
[02:54.35] And I always will, there ain't no substitute for the truth
[02:59.84] Either it is or it isn't
[03:01.61] ('Cause he is the truth) you see the truth it needs no proof
[03:04.45] Either it is or it isn't
[03:06.31] ('Cause he is the truth) now you know the truth by the way it feels
[03:12.18] And if I am a reflection of him (mmm) then I must be fly (fly)
[03:18.16] Because he is, (light) yes he is (bright)
[03:20.98] I wonder, does he know? (I wonder, does he know, I wonder does he know)
[03:26.54]
