"Truth" lyrics

Hey Mister Mayor, what the hell we gonna do?
Tell the truth
Say Mister Mayor, could I have a word with you?
Am I getting through?

Yes, I have seen the levees comin' down
I've seen fire on the ground
Money leavin' town
Now I am growing older looking through
This different point of view
But I'm closer to the truth
Yes I am
Yes I am

Where is the Savior?
'Cause he don't look a thing like you
Tell the truth
Save it for later
'Cause you've had your time to prove
Now your time is through

Yes, I have seen the levees comin' down
I've seen fire on the ground
Money leavin' town
Now I am growing older looking through
This different point of view
But I'm closer to the truth
Yes I am
Yes I am
Yes I am
Yes I am

I lay low, I'll cover my head
What I know, I'll keep it under my bed
Though I try to steady my mind
I get weary, what I might find

'Cause I have seen the levees comin' down
I've seen the fire on the ground
Money leavin' town
And now I am growing older looking through
This different point of view
But I'm closer to the truth
Yes I am
Yes I am
Yes I am
Yes I am
