The So Called Truth

from We Have Eyes by Greg Grant

/

lyrics

All my life, I’ve been hearing
How it’s supposed to be
But what might seem good to you
Might not be so good for me

My life is my own
Sorry if you disagree
It belongs to me alone
So you be you, let me be me

All I need is some time
On my own, to find what’s best
You know, it ain’t no crime
To be different from the rest

How can you try and tell me
What you’ve been told is true
When what you’re trying to sell me
Is just something they sold to you

Some people try and tell you
That it’s black when you see white
If you question the so-called truth
They just shake their heads and swear they’re right

We don’t see though we have eyes
We’re taught not to question the “truth”
Most of us believe the lies
Blind faith is our proof

All my life I have heard
How it’s supposed to be
But truth doesn’t live in words
It’s in the eyes that can see

There’s no one best way
To get where you’re going
I guess I’d have to say
It depends which way the wind is blowing

So I’ll set my sails
And hope for the best
You know, if I should fail
At least I didn’t stay down, like the rest
