You've got to be true, be true to your conscience You've got to be true, be true to your conscience When it's time to build a shelter From the raging storm You gonna find out what you're made of You gonna find out what you're made of In frozen desolation Seeking comfort and warmth But it's the fire you're afraid of Is it your power you're afraid of? It is said That no word speak loud as action Don't be misled By deceit and distraction I've been telling you Over and over When your back against the wall You bound to discover You've got to be true Vanity, partiality Wipe them from your reality No hopelessness, covetousness The day you were born Is the day you were blessed When it's time to keep your word Despite your pain and hurt You're gonna find out what you're made of You gonna find out what you're made of To know flesh is bound To return unto this earth Is it time that you're afraid of Yes it's time that you're afraid of It is said What don't bend, it will break Only a fool Never learn from his mistake I've been telling you Over and over When your back against the wall Your self you'll discover You've got to be true, be true to your conscience You've got to be true, be true to your conscience You've got to be true
