Texty: Lalah Hathaway. Self Portrait. Naked Truth.
Verse 1
Under my skin, (I feel it)
Reaching my soul, (I cant resist)
My safe illusion, (Of control)
Slowly fading, (You already know)
The dance were dancing, (We?ve danced before)
Matter of time (Before I let go)
We?ve come together, (To tear us apart)
And though it was written (With that look in your eyes)
Chorus
It?s just the naked truth (Truly alive when I?m with you)
It?s just the naked truth (You?ve changed all I thought I knew)
Yet you were living proof (It was given, the times you spent)
As we climb to heights anew (And the naked truth)
Verse 2
Dead Energy (The currency)
Close the space (Between you and me)
Without a touch ascender (Burning within)
Threatens to spread (Before it begins)
With baited breath I ponder (What you just said)
The band is broken (Want you dead in my head)
I?m going down (And I love the feeling)
Filling me up (And your taken me down)
Chorus
It?s just the naked truth (Truly alive, truly alive)
It?s just the naked truth (You?ve changed all I thought I knew)
Yet you were living proof (It was given, the times you spent)
As we climb to heights anew (And the naked truth)
Under my skin, (I feel it)
Reaching my soul, (I cant resist)
My safe illusion, (Of control)
Slowly fading, (You already know)
The dance were dancing, (We?ve danced before)
Matter of time (Before I let go)
We?ve come together, (To tear us apart)
And though it was written (With that look in your eyes)
Chorus
It?s just the naked truth (Truly alive when I?m with you)
It?s just the naked truth (You?ve changed all I thought I knew)
Yet you were living proof (It was given, the times you spent)
As we climb to heights anew (And the naked truth)
