The Truth Will Set You Free

Dion

    Continues after the ad

    Down the dirty city street
    Black-topped sneakers on my feet
    I raced thru' early teenage years
    And dealt with all those needless fears

    Waiting as the school bell rang
    To drop my books and join the gang
    In alley fights with stick ball games
    When passing girls wore dirty names

    Over my shoulder and back thru' the years
    I can see my father's eyes in my memory
    Jesus died upon the cross
    All was won and nothing lost
    And how the truth will set you free, yeah
    And how the truth will set you free

    I turned my collar, I combed my hair
    And I'd hide all the confusion there
    When two dimes made my pockets ring
    I was a wealthy New York king

    Continues after the ad

    Being cool by the candy store
    I knew my world yet wanted more
    My high school colors of black and blue
    They would disturb my point of view

    Over my shoulder and back thru' the years
    I can see my father's eyes in my memory
    Saying why Jesus died upon the cross
    All was won and nothing lost
    And how the truth will set you free
    Yeah (the truth will set you free)
    Son, the truth will set you free

    You know our candy stores turn shopping malls
    And two dimes won't buy much at all
    The boy, caruso, on the street
    Is a father now in slippered feet

    Who tells his son as years go by
    How God's the truth and hates a lie
    It's not what's in your pockets son
    But what's in your heart that makes us one

    Over your shoulder and back thru' the years
    You will see your father's eyes in your memory
    Tellin' you, Jesus died upon the cross
    All was won and nothing lost
    And how the truth will set you free
    Yeah (the truth will set you free)
    And son, the truth will set you free
    Yeah (the truth will set you free)

    (The truth will set you)
    (The truth will set you) free
    (The truth will set you)
    (The truth will set you) the truth will set you free
    (The truth will set you) you are free
    (The truth will set you) you are free
    (Free) that's the truth, that's the truth son
    (The truth will set you) you are free
    (The truth will set you)
    (Free) that's the truth son, that's the truth son
    (The truth will set you) the truth will set you free
    (The truth will set you)
    (Free) the truth will set you free
    (The truth will set you)
    (The truth will set you)
    (Free) will set you free
    (The truth will set you) yeah
    (The truth will set you)
    (Free) the truth will set you free
    The truth will set you free
    (The truth will set you)
    (The truth will set you) oh oh
    (Free) oh oh
    (The truth) will set you
    (The truth) will set you
    (Free) the truth will set you free
    (The truth) will set you
    (The truth) will set you
    (Free) you gotta be free
    (The truth will set you) you are free
    (The truth will set you) you are free
    (Free) that's the truth son, that's the truth son
    The truth will set you free
    (The truth will set you)
    (The truth will set you)
    (Free)
