Truth Without Love - Alicia Keys

Such a nuisance, tryna kill all the loose ends

Tell me how the truth became so elusive

Them illusions from the fusion, the intrusion

Contusion

You got me confused, man

Wish I could change everything up

You all in my zone, Jack go home, ain’t the same ’cause

Wondering if I was still the same girl (I wonder)

The girl you knew before she came up (I wonder)

What if I was you?

What if I was the same?

What about the truth?

Runnin’ round with no shame

What if I wasn’t Alicia?

Would it please ya?

How would I feed ya?

What if to you I was just leecher?

Why would I need ya?

Why would I need ya, yeah

Tell me why the hell is something always wrong

Tell me why the hell I had to write this song

Even when I’m right, they gonna say I’m wrong

Oh well, oh well

Tell my why the hell I had to write this song

Tell me why the hell is something always wrong

Even when I’m right, they gonna say I’m wrong

Oh well, oh well

(Truth without love) Oh well, oh well

(Truth without love) Oh well, oh well

(Truth without love) Oh well, oh well

(Truth without love) Oh well, oh well

“You can’t understand me” is an understatement

I love you more because I know you hate me

I love you more ’cause I know you forsake me

So you hate it more, can’t wait to drive the stake in

You lucky I do this for different reasons

Shine all the time no matter the seasons

Lawry’s

Swear they out here extra salty

Man, they out here extra salty

I swear they out here extra salty

Yeah

All in time, one day you’ll find

The truth without love

Truth without love

The truth without love

Truth without love is just a lie

Oh well, oh well

Oh well, oh well

(Truth without love) Oh well, oh well

(Truth without love) Oh well, oh well

(Truth without love) Oh well, oh well

(Truth without love is just a lie) Oh well, oh well
