The Painful Truth
Truth
Is an endangered space
Truth
Is associated with the painful
That should not be spoken
And it becomes hard to get people to value
Speaking freely
Dissident speech
The painful truth
That will to silence is growing
But I see the hope
People are really hungry
For truth
Hungry
For truth
We are in danger
Of silencing
Any form of speech
That goes against
What is perceived to be
The status quo
Truth
Is an endangered space
People are hungry for
Provocative voices
That go to the heart of the matter
Because they want answers
To the things that they are
In crisis about
Dissident speech
The painful truth
Is not valued in our nation
But I see the hope
People are really hungry
For truth
Hungry
For truth
The hope that I feel
Within my own self
And with other people
Is that hunger for truth
And for ways to live our lives
More fully
Dissident speech
The painful truth
There are things we have to say
That will be wounding
But I believe in
The outrageous pursuit of hope
A society that is full of promise
And possibility
People are really hungry
For truth
Hungry
For truth
And its that hunger
That keeps a place
For the dissenting voice
That keeps the place for speaking freely
Is an endangered space
Truth
Is associated with the painful
That should not be spoken
And it becomes hard to get people to value
Speaking freely
Dissident speech
The painful truth
That will to silence is growing
But I see the hope
People are really hungry
For truth
Hungry
For truth
We are in danger
Of silencing
Any form of speech
That goes against
What is perceived to be
The status quo
Truth
Is an endangered space
People are hungry for
Provocative voices
That go to the heart of the matter
Because they want answers
To the things that they are
In crisis about
Dissident speech
The painful truth
Is not valued in our nation
But I see the hope
People are really hungry
For truth
Hungry
For truth
The hope that I feel
Within my own self
And with other people
Is that hunger for truth
And for ways to live our lives
More fully
Dissident speech
The painful truth
There are things we have to say
That will be wounding
But I believe in
The outrageous pursuit of hope
A society that is full of promise
And possibility
People are really hungry
For truth
Hungry
For truth
And its that hunger
That keeps a place
For the dissenting voice
That keeps the place for speaking freely
