The Truth
You can only hide from the truth for so long before it finds you
Walking around and doing wrong it's soon going to come due
You'll no longer be able to hide what you thought was hidden
I certainly don't mean to chide but it's yourself you are kidding
So many before you have tried and we all see how that went
So many have also lied not saying what they really had meant
But it all got figured out as it ended up coming out in the wash
This the end of a long tiring bout as reality finally put the kibosh
Others will continue to try in going about weaving their wicked web
Often using their elected clout in the allowing of such snares to ebb
Crashing down they too will come and their names forever smeared
For no one is really that dumb even if they end up getting cleared
The truth is the best policy in that it shall never cause you to fall
For the truth shall set you free in the breaking down of every wall
Always have the truth by your side in each and every battle you enter
Deflecting all the things that they have tried for truth is at your center
