My Truth - Robyn

If I don’t say what you want to hear

If I don’t dress in what you want me to wear

If I don’t think the way you do

I can’t help it 'cause that’s my truth

If my humour makes you bored

If my religion isn’t yours

If my maturity doesn’t fit my youth

I can’t help it 'cause that’s my truth

See, the truth often hurts

But if it’s honest it´s always worth it

Can’t deny that I’m subjective

But no truth can be objective

Even though it’s universal

It’s always individual

My truth, your truth, his truth, her truth

It doesn’t matter as long as it’s true

If my culture is something you don’t know

It’s unfamiliar and it’s uncomfortable

I suggest you get to know my roots

Before you judge me 'cause that’s my truth

If your opinion is different from mine

If where I say go is where you draw the line

Even if I may not agree

I will accept 'cause it’s your truth and it sets you free

See, the truth often hurts

But if it’s honest it´s always worth it

Can’t deny that I’m subjective

But no truth can be objective

Even though it’s universal

It’s always individual

My truth, your truth, his truth, her truth

It doesn’t matter as long as it’s true

Don’t you loose your truth, for whatever it’s worth

Don’t you try to compromise with your own life

See, the truth often hurts

But if it’s honest it´s always worth it

Can’t deny that I’m subjective

But no truth can be objective

Even though it’s universal

It’s always individual

My truth, your truth, his truth, her truth

It doesn’t matter as long as it’s true
