[Intro – Spoken Word / Soft Echo]
Sometimes the truth don’t whisper — it screams.
It cracks your shell, but that’s how the light gets in.
Yeah… the truth hurts — but it heals too.
(Asho-rai… O-rahi…)
[Verse 1]
They told me lies dressed up in love,
Fed me dreams from a paper cup.
I was blind, but my soul had sight,
Walked through the dark till I found the light.
Been played, betrayed, tore apart —
Still got love beating deep in my heart.
Ain’t no mask gon’ hide what I’m born to be,
Now I rise — clear, pure, and free.
Every wound that bled just made me sure,
Even in darkness, my soul can heal once more.
[Pre-Chorus]
I faced my reflection, no filter, no disguise,
Saw my power standing where my pain lies.
[Chorus]
Truth hurts, but it sets me free,
Cut me deep, brought me to my knees.
Invisible marks still live on my skin,
So I face the pain, and I keep it real.
Truth hurts, yeah, but I still bleed light,
Turn my scars into wings tonight.
[Verse 2]
Now I walk in truth, no shame, no chains,
Got wisdom dripping through my veins.
They tried to dim me, but I still shine bright,
’Cause the glow comes straight from the divine light.
I’m not bitter, I’m just aware,
You can’t break peace when it’s built from prayer.
This is my sermon, my holy fight,
I found my purpose in the sleepless nights.
[Bridge – Spiritual Flow]
Asho-rai… luma-rai… let the pain unwind,
O-rahi… etu-kai… I reclaim my mind.
Truth is the flame that burns the lies,
But baby, from that fire, I rise.
[Final Chorus – Soulful Outro]
Truth hurts, but I found my wings,
Now I soar above those broken things.
Love’s my language, peace my song,
The truth was pain — but it made me strong.
Truth hurts… but it sets me free,
Yeah, it sets me free.
[Outro – Spoken with Power and Grace]
Blood mixed water — how can that be?
My DNA’s ancient, my bloodline runs deep.
Kings and Queens, royal blood,
Makes my music hum, my spirit thrum.
Original Angel, from the heavens above —
Now I’m here, standing tall in love.
(Ether whispers)
Truth hurts… but it heals.
