[intro] It's situations like this to cause us players to get caught up in the truth... [verse 1] The way you feel The past you lived The things you did It don't matter to me For what it's worth just don't lie to me 'cause that ain't what I need right now Baby everything we built on trust You tearin' it down 'cause I know the truth hurts [hook] Truth hurts Tell me the truth now What you been doin' And who you been doin' with Truth hurts Where you been goin' And how you been putting your thang down Truth hurts Whatever you was workin' I hope that it was wirth it, baby Truth hurts I got reason to believe you've been foolin' around [verse 2] Girl I'm really tryin' hard to understand I wanna move on and put it in the past 'cause you claim that you ain't doin' nothing Must be my insecurity It's got the best of me right now What I know I can't hold inside of me It's gon' drive me insane 'cause I know the truth hurts [hook] Bah bah bah bah bah Bah bah bah bah bah Bah bah bah bah bah Bah bah bah bah [verse 3] Now wait a minute Oh listen baby The truth is I got this here secret I been keeping from you baby 'cause I know that you Gonna tear up the place Punch me in my face Pull the hot grits out Think you need to sit down, ho ho I been blamin' you when I'm the one that's doing wrong I'mma go on A guilty conscience is the real reason I wrote this song Girl I know the truth hurts, baby [hook] (2x)
