Searching for the Truth

Nothing's what I thought it was before

I used to think the world was true and now I'm not so sure

'Cause everyone including me is always tryna be somethin' they're not

Oh, I don't see the things that I used to see

Everywhere I go, sombody's tryna sell somethin' to me

But who's the asshole that convinced us all happiness isn't free?

It feels like a river keeps unwindin'

It feels like a clock with awful timin'

Everybody's full of shit, there's no denyin'

It feels like I'm searchin' for the truth

In a world that's always lyin'

I don't dream the way I used to dream

Now that I'm older, people say they're way out of my reach

And all a college degree taught me is that passion ain't somethin' you can teach

It feels like the love, it keeps on dyin'

Feels like the break in a silver linin'

Everybody's full of shit, there's no denyin'

It feels like I'm searchin' for the truth

In a world that's always lyin'

Set you free

Troubles set you free

I don't love the way I used to love

Once I gave myself to someone who said it'd never be enough

But a broken heart has shown me that I still know how to get back up

It feels like the sunrise keeps on risin'

Feels like the stars keep alignin'

With every precious day I'm given, I'm reminded

To keep on searchin' for the truth

Yeah, keep on searchin' for the truth

In a world that's always lyin'
