The Naked Truth
Truth stands naked, a tarnished treasure
It is not a thing you can measure
Built with illusions, taught since birth
Because of this we've devalued its worth
The world we believe, our mind's conception
More often than not with our own perception
Truth is, it's neither imagined or created
It is simplicity and not complicated
To fear naked truth is to conspire
And flee from what is, not your desire
To be blind to the truth is to infer
and leave a shadow of your character
