lyrics

Think I'm getting to the point where it's time to face the music
Think I'm getting to the point where I know that I can't keep lying to myself
Time to block out all the noise and accept the cards dealt to me
Something's gotta give in me, cus I can't turn nowhere else

'Cus maybe if I look inside
Where love resides
I'll see my way I'm sure
The truth is mine to find behind that door, turning to

Honesty: only you can show you yourself
Honestly, and it will save the day
Just make an honest plea and watch your transformation
'Cus in all honesty, it hurts but it may be the only…

Saying I can change the world but I'm stuck in self-denial
Searching through the script but I never find the lines
Words that can help me breathe
Want this part of who I am and my faith to reconcile
No, it won't be easy but it's the word that's birthed in me

'Cus maybe if I look inside
I'll realize
The all of who I am
Is all that I'm supposed to be
Finally I'll be free to live in

Honesty: only you can show you yourself
Honestly, and it will save the day
Just make an honest plea and watch your transformation
'Cus in all honesty, it hurts but it may be the only way

Honesty
It hurts but it may be the only way

Honesty
It hurts but it may be the only way
