The Truth Lyrics - James Arthur

It was good to be there in the bright lights, mmm 

But I lost good friends under the spotlight, woah 

Imagine if everybody knew your name 

But they had nothing to say, nothing nice to say 

It was good to be living up the high life, woah 

But the comedown's harder in the headlines, woah 

Everybody tells you, you should play the game 

But there's only you to play, there's only you to play 

But I tried 

I set fire to the glory 

I set fire to the dream 

I set fire to the only thing 

That lead me from the streets 

Don't tell me it's over, cause I don't want to believe 

Cause now I've opened my eyes and I have found a way to breathe 

The truth sets me free

I broke my back to make a breakthrough, mmm 

I lost my mind, look what it came to, oh 

I had to lose it all so I could understand, woah 

I was just a boy in the shadow of a man 

I set fire to the glory 

I set fire to the dream 

I set fire to the only thing 

That lead me from the streets 

Don't tell me it's over, cause I don't want to believe 

Cause now I've opened my eyes and I have found a way to breathe 

Oh, the truth sets me free 

Oh, the truth sets me free 

I set fire to the glory 

I set fire to the dream 

I set fire to the only thing 

That lead me from the streets 

Don't tell me it's over, I don't want to believe 

Cause now I've opened my eyes and I have found a way to breathe 

Oh, the truth sets me free 

Oh, the truth sets me free 

It sets me free
