[00:24.709]	Say it say it say it tell it like it is
[00:35.600]	Say it say it say it tell it like it is
[00:41.910]
[00:45.530]	What breaks your heart
[00:47.150]
[00:50.780]	What keeps you awake at night
[00:54.820]
[01:01.800]	What makes you to want breakdown and cry
[01:05.850]
[01:12.289]	But say youll never turn your back
[01:14.980]	Say youll never harden to the world
[01:18.200]	Say youll never try to still the rhythms in your breast
[01:22.500]
[01:22.910]	Say youll never look at the evil among us and try to forget
[01:28.120]	Say youll tell it it like is
[01:30.500]
[01:39.740]	Say it say it say it so everyone can hear
[01:45.990]
[01:50.700]	Say it say it say it tell it like it is
[01:56.680]
[02:00.360]	What breaks your hear
[02:01.940]
[02:05.690]	What keeps you awake at night
[02:09.889]
[02:16.329]	How your anger and grief
[02:17.769]
[02:18.890]	Make you want to cry out
[02:20.700]
[02:21.999]	And tell it like it is
[02:23.329]
[02:27.100]	But say youll never close your eyes
[02:29.519]	Or pretend that its a rosy world
[02:32.329]	youll never Say try to paint
[02:33.359]	What is rotten with a sugarcoat
[02:36.549]
[02:37.369]	Say youll talk about the horrors youve seen and the torment you know
[02:42.989]	tell And it like it is
[02:44.719]
[03:36.659]	Say it say it say it

[04:19.690]
[04:23.320]	Say youll never cover your ears and close your mouth
[04:25.969]	And live in a silent world
[04:28.570]	Say youll only run as far or as fast as you need to be secure
[04:33.280]
[04:33.969]	Say that then youll tell the truth
[04:36.659]	When a lie could cross your lips
[04:39.308]	And tell it like it is
[04:40.940]
