[Intro]
Y’all might not like me for this one
[Verse]
[Male Vocal]
You see someone you loved just passed and it’s hard to get by
You might wake every morning with tears in your eyes
Somehow, you still put up a fight
And just before you go to bed, you have conversations at night
Like why you have to leave here in such a haste
And how they’re not missing much since they’re in a better place
And like how you feel left alone like being stuck on the island
You asked tons of questions, but no answer the room stay silent 
But you stumble over your words because of the pain
 and still fall asleep with tears in your eyes because the trip down memory lane 
Why

[Chorus]
[Male Vocal]
The truth is the dead can’t here you
And if something answers back, pray to God, they spare you
 The truth is
Now don’t hate
Everybody that dies, don’t get to see the pearly gates
The truth is
 this is just not coming from my pen
The bible says Just because you say, Lord Lord won’t get you in 
The truth is
You and I both know if our loved ones lived a life of crime
So at his funeral, tell the truth and stop telling those lies
[Verse]
[Male Vocal]
So just know if you pass while being mischievous, and hurting folks
That there’s no heaven for you hell is
your home?
But if you liv the way God want you to 
Then your funeral would be beautiful and heaven belongs to you
So if you here this song and feel some type of way
Read the Bible and you’ll know why I put it this way
People crying over love ones that’s cool, but don’t be a fool
Some physically hurt people and broke spiritual rules
You know the 10 Commandments, thou shall not, but if thou shall thou shall thou shall get got 
 [Chorus]
[Male Vocal]
The truth is the dead can’t here you
And if something answers back, pray to God, they spare you
The truth is
Now don’t hate
Everybody that dies, don’t get to see the pearly gates
The truth is
this is just not coming from my pen
The bible says Just because you say, Lord Lord won’t get you in
The truth is
You and I both know if our loved ones lived a life of crime
So at his funeral, tell the truth and stop telling those lies
[Chorus]
[Male Vocal]
The truth is the dead can’t here you
And if something answers back, pray to God, they spare you
The truth is
Now don’t hate
Everybody that dies, don’t get to see the pearly gates
The truth is
this is just not coming from my pen
The bible says Just because you say, Lord Lord won’t get you in
The truth is
You and I both know if our loved ones lived a life of crime
So at his funeral, tell the truth and stop telling those lies
