Låttexter: Steven Curtis Chapman. Got To B Tru.
G O T T O B T R U, tru
Well normally at this point you'd hear me sing
And I'd be doing that acoustic guitar thing
So by now you're probably wondering what's going on
'Cause this is really starting to sound like one of those rap songs
Well let me tell you what the boy's up to
You see I like rap music and the beat box groove
Sometimes I gotta admit I close all the doors
And wave my arms around and I pace the floor
But then I crack up laughing, I gotta stop
And just face the facts the boy don't hip hop
You see I grew up in a state where the grass is blue
So if it's gonna be believable it's got to b tru
It's got to b tru, I've gotta be living what I say I believe
It's got to b tru, even when nobody but Jesus is watching me
It's got to b tru, every single minute of every day
If anybody's ever gonna look at me and say, hey it's got to b tru
You hear me saying that it's got to b tru
And no my homeboy Toby wants to talk to you
Tru, check it out I got a next door neighbor
And I can tell he's been watching my behavior
Yo he's heard that I'm a Christian guy
He wants to know if that's the truth or a lie
He's got a list of reasons not to believe
Like doubt, dissolution, hypocrisy
It's gonna take some living proof to break out through those walls
So yo, it's got to b tru if he'll believe at all
It's got to b tru, I've gotta be living what I say I believe
It's got to b tru, even when nobody but Jesus is watching me
It's got to b tru, every single minute of every day
If anybody's ever gonna look at me and say, hey it's got to b tru
From the T and to the R and to the U and to the E
G O T T O B T R U
(It's got to b tru)
From the T and to the R and to the U and to the E
You got to b tru to what you say you believe

It's got to b tru, yeah, I've gotta be living what I say I believe
It's got to b tru, even when nobody but Jesus is watching me
It's got to b tru, yeah every single minute of every day
Anybody's ever gonna look at me and say, hey it's got to b, got to b
Got to b tru, I've gotta be living what I say I believe
It's got to b tru, even when nobody but Jesus is watching me
