Truth in the World Songtext

von Lucky Dube

I've been risking my life all these years
Protecting you from all the wrongs you did, man
I keep all this because of your promises
You promise me that you will die when I die
Promise that when trouble comes my way
You're gonna be there
But'a when'a trouble caz'a nock'a in'a I and I door
You were not there to be found
But when the trouble comes and knocks in my door
You're not there to be found
The world is turning around
Yesterday becomes tomorrow
When lies are said to be the truth
And truth is said to be lies, yeah, yeah, yeah

No truth in this world, no truth in this world

Like a preacher in church
Who preaches until tears run down his face
But when the sun goes down he is the hooligan
But when the sun goes down he is the witch
Now he is doin all this in the Creators name
Do you think this is the way God wants it to be?
The world is turning around
When today becomes tomorrow
When lies become truth
The future becomes the past

No truth in this world, no truth in this world
No truth in this world, no truth in this world
No truth in this world, no truth in this world
