Word Called Truth

Heard a lot about this word called truth
Though it seems exasperatingly illusive
Contradictions always find their suits
In someone else's fully sound imagination

But I don't agree with any of these
I want to feel the rain on my feet
Not these hobbled county streets

Found a book about this word called truth
Said it held the only sounds that we could sing to
I decided just to follow suit
And wear the hat that I had previously held onto

Just don't think to read words aside from these
They'll eat your dreams and bring you unease
You don't want to end up back on the streets

But what if I do
Is that so wrong of me
To want to breath
From Gaia's leaves
What if I do
Baby can't you see
There's a fire rolling and it's calling me

I decided just to leave that truth
And I know that there's some serious ramifications
With some time I went to find my suit
So I could see if there was any consolation

But as I searched my lies and pleas
I saw a coward searching for peace
In anything but his own heartbeat

I can't imagine what its like to lose
An only child before he reaches his fruition
But, quite frankly, I would give my shoes
To any child that could teach me how to listen

To another's imaginative dreams
And see with eyes that see the breeze
To hear the joy of the winding streams

So what if I do
Is that so wrong of me
To have my youth
Each time I breath
What if I do
Let's make room for peace
There's a fire rolling and it's got a hold on me

It's amazing how we use our truths
To imagine our own creations
Expecting everyone to wear the suits
That we fashioned without any consultation

Then we get mad when they rip the crease
That took hours to sew and complete
Cut the scene, rewind, repeat

I still believe that there can be one truth
That everything has it's own imagination
The tree's, the water, the home grown fruit
The eagle gliding over all of creation

But as we suck the ground of each
Of the elements that keep her at ease
I think we fuel our own disease

So what if it's true
Is it so wrong to see
The world uncaged
And finally set free
What if it's true
Baby can't you see
There's a fire rolling
