“The Truth” is the opening track to The Almighty. There is an ostinato consisting of a single tone in the background that is similar to the repeating tone from the opening track on Medieval Chamber: “Drawbridge”.
[Intro: Rugged Monk]
Goin' through them crates
Like this was '88
808's bangin' guerrilla
Planet of the apes
Yeah, we going through them crates
Like this was '88
808's bangin'
Guerrilla
Like this was Planet of the apes
Like this was Planet of the apes
Like this was '88
808's bangin' guerrilla
Planet of the Apes
[Hook: Crisis]
The fans know we the truth
Something that they can't live without
Black Knights still bangin' Wu
Baby and we gon' live it out
For Doc Doom Rest in Peace
And my peeps who ain't getting out
We gon' show the world what we about
Eliminate the doubt
The fans know we the truth
Something that they can't live without
Black Knights still bangin' Wu
Baby and we gon' live it out
For Doc Doom Rest in Peace
And my peeps who ain't getting out
We gon' show the world what we about
Eliminate the doubt
[Verse 1: Rugged Monk]
Pistol whip you with the steel
Get yellow and squeal
My gun bust a slug
That's a deal or no deal
They say I'm so street
Cause I follow my own beat
Technique and rhyme patterns
I'm a true artiste
Don't confuse me with the others
Cause I'm not on that list
Illustrate like an author
Real street scientists
Violent when I'm tripin'
You must be ego tripin'
Thinking you gon' fuck with me
That's your brain on drugs
They gon' bury me a G
You in the memory of none
Thinking you gon' find my weak spot
That'll take a lifetime
Your brain will collapse
Call you Albert Einstein
You could study from 30-50 years
You'll be far behind
Cause you a dull butter-knife
I'm a sharp porcupine
You just a dull butter-knife
I'm just as sharp as a porcupine
[Verse 2: Crisis]
Eliminate the fake with one shot
You wonder how I can
Because I'm everything you're not
Scorching hot, they can't resist
Something they can't prevent
The pain is too intense
Welcome to the main event
You can never fuck with this
But you'll never admit
Try to hold it in when I'm going in
Lyrics transmit
Make you call it quits
Break you down
With the first six
Bars leave you scared and they
Damage the surface
I call it service
You call it getting embarrassed
I'm something they cherish
You're something that's gonna perish
No time for errors
At all
Blood sweat and tears involved
And blackballed
So we move for one common cause
Stay relevant
While the others can't even evolve
A problem they can't solve
So them sucka's just dissolve
Gangsta's make the world revolve
And busta's just play they part
My darts a work of art
To Hip Hop I'm the art
[Hook: Crisis]
The fans know we the truth
Something that they can't live without
Black Knights still bangin' Wu
Baby and we gon' live it out
For Doc Doom Rest in Peace
And my peeps who ain't getting out
We gon' show the world what we about
Eliminate the doubt
The fans know we the truth
Something that they can't live without
Black Knights still bangin' Wu
Baby and we gon' live it out
For Doc Doom Rest in Peace
And my peeps who ain't getting out
We gon' show the world what we about
Eliminate the doubt
[Outro: Crisis]
