Xavier Rudd - True to Yourself lyrics

Man in the mirror is forsaken trust
Will haunt him wherever he goes
The knees of the devil will shake my love
If I were to break what I know
And time and time when I feel those vibes
Frustration rises again
And I wish in those times you could see my
Eyes and remember once more who I am

True, to yourself my love
Be true to yourself
True, to yourself my love
Be true to yourself

Man on the street with his cardboard box
Feeding his dog with his change
Told me he loved her with all of his heart
Without her he'd never be the same
And sometimes at night when I close my eyes
I think of them cold in the rain
As long as he's holding her close by his side
Together they'll always be okay

True, to yourself my love
Be true to yourself
True, to yourself my love
Be true to yourself

Your wings have been clipped once or twice
My love
The strength of your legs took their place
Your father
He taught you to be loved the proper way
Your mother the rock in that space
And people are people most do their best
For those people we are blessed
Stick and stones may break our bones
But nothing can break our nest

True, to yourself my love
Be true to yourself
True, to yourself my love
Be true to yourself
