Truth to Power - OneRepublic

Human "being" has lost its meaning when you refuse to fight If I don't force your hand, it could cost you your life You're waiting around to die and you're all right with it You're waiting around to die and I can't stand for it Say you've got the fire in you, then show me what you've got You say the future's yours, I think your future is filled with rot You're waiting around to die, how can you live with it? Just waiting around to die and I can't fucking stand it You're waiting around to die, how can you live with it? Just waiting around to die, is this how we're going to end it? No Can't be held accountable for another hopeless soul The choice ain't up to me, you've got to fight to be free

The truth is that I never shook my shadow Every day, it's trying to trick me into doing battle Calling out 'faker', only get me rattled Wanna pull me back behind the fence with the cattle Building your lenses, digging your trenches Put me on the front line, leave me with a dumb mind With no defenses but your defense is If you can't stand to feel the pain then you are senseless Since this, I've grown up some different kind of fighter And when the darkness comes, let it inside you And your darkness is shining, my darkness is shining Have faith in myself Truth I've seen a million numbered doors on the horizon Now which is the future you're choosing before you go dying? I'll tell you about a secret I've been undermining Every little lie in this world comes from dividing Say you're my lover, say you're my own, homie Tilt my chin back, slit my throat Take a bath in my blood, get to know me All out of my secrets, all my enemies are turning into my teachers Because light's blinding, no way dividing What's yours or mine when everything's shining? You darkness is shining, my darkness is shining Have faith in ourselves Truth Yes, I'm only loving, only trying to only love And, yes, and what I'm trying to do is only loving Yes, I'm only loving, trying to only love I swear to God, I'm only trying to be loving Yes, I'm only lonely loving Yes, I'm only feeling only loving, only loving You say it ain't loving, ain't loving Ain't loving, my loving But I'm only loving, still only loving Swear to god, I'm only loving Trying to be loving, loving Loving, loving, loving, loving Yes I'm only loving, yes, trying to only love I swear to god, I'm trying but I'm only loving You say it ain't loving, ain't loving, ain't loving Ain't loving, ain't loving my loving But I'm only loving, loving, loving, loving the truth Truth
