True to Yourself

[Verse 1]

Man in the mirror is forsaken trust

Will haunt him wherever he goes

The knees of the devil will shake my love

If I were to break what I know

And time and time when I feel those vibes

Frustration rises again

And I wish in those times you could see my eyes and remember once more who I am

[Chorus]

True, to yourself my love

Be true to yourself

True, to yourself my love

Be true to yourself

[Verse 2]

Man on the street with his cardboard box

Feeding his dog with his change

Told me he loved her with all of his heart

Without her he'd never be the same

And sometimes at night when I close my eyes

I think of them cold in the rain

As long as he's holding her close by his side

Together they'll always be okay

[Chorus]

True, to yourself my love

Be true to yourself

True, to yourself my love

Be true to yourself

[Verse 3]

Your wings have been clipped once or twice, my love

The strength of your legs took their place

Your father, he taught you to be loved the proper way

Your mother the rock in that space

And people are people

Most do their best

For those people we are blessed

Stick and stones may break our bones

But nothing can break our nest

[Chorus]

True, to yourself my love

Be true to yourself

True, to yourself my love

Be true to yourself
