Verse 1

All I ever wanted was to know the truth

Seeking Jesus at 14 meaning my middle youth

Man I really hungered and had this inner thirst

Absurd the thought of me even missin' a day of church

Man it felt like heaven, especially Bible study

I had my Bible pen and pad sittin' next to my buddies

The Word had us open especially certain verses

Spendin' hours in worship man it just felt so perfect

And then after the service out on the parking lot

Laughin' and rappin' for hours afterwards we talked a lot

Felt like your second family for me felt like my first

We lost our ties when my dad died I kept in hurt

Remember certain ministers inspired you to learn

You had anxiety inside and just waitin' your turn

People announce they callin' jumpin' and shoutin'

That dun dunt dun dunt it was so arousin'

Chorus

Give us the truth that's what we need

Lying leaders been deceivin' us since we were seeds

Give us the truth that's what we need

Teachers and preachers teach us the things that set us free

Give us the truth that's what we need

Parents teach us bout Jesus before we get older

Give us the truth that's what we need

Sin is spreading and the world is getting colder

Verse Two

Then that first year progressed and turned into five

Learning so much and I'm comin' in touch closer with God

Some things were gettin' sticky I mean real sticky

I'm trippin' I'm wonderin' was Jesus even really with me

Man I felt numb meanin' I lost my feelin'

People standin', dancin', liftin' hands while I was chillin'

No longer loved the sermons felt like I wasn't learnin'

The topics taught on weren't touchin' my inner yearnings

And then some behavior seemed like counterfeit revival

I looked for Scriptures that supported this off in the Bible

Yet I couldn't find it I felt blinded

I thought it was a demon in error I tried to bind it

But nothin' happened here comes depression

Maybe when they threw the Holy Spirit that I didn't catch Him

Did I miss my blessin'? Felt unprotected

In the midst of a war scarred without my weapon

Verse Three

Then I left E.Rock on a tour with Abundant Life

And who would have knew it these dudes have also been through it

I shared my brokenness feelings of hopelessness

For so long faked my emotions no one even noticed it

Yet it was obvious God in His providence

Put me with people to guide me and got me outta this

And then my other brother T.R.U.T.H. began to share the same

I almost wept I saw the steps it took to bear the name

Without truth left me in utter confusion

Without truth left me with subtle delusions

Without truth no longer fought to win

Without truth drove me back into sin

The depth of this journey can't be described in words

This is just the tip of the iceberg

But from now until my death this is what I'll do

I'm learning standing and I'll fight for truth
