Push Play Lyrics


I decided I would get my shit together
Deal with the truth, I'm going loose
I got somethin' to say, well
Now I believe when it's real, you got to face it
It's called the truth I think I heard somebody say
This way
Let the truth be told
Let the truth be told told
Let the truth be told
Let the truth be told told
Yo, do y'all remember the truth?
The niggas can't handle the truth
In fact, they scared of it
See let me explain somethin' to ya
Truth is these niggas seeing that we at it again
Straight up to work this magic again
So can I get a witness?
Suckas on some pimp shit

Introducin' truth to the world
They ain't ready for this soulful singer
like a real bitch supposed to
Music you can coast to
Put it all in them hate niggas roll through
Not fake, not false like the average
Nobody's fuckin' takin' advantage
She's out to do damage
To all ya'll R&B bitches
(Yes I am)
Ain't hard for her to see bitches
Even the words you think is key bitches
(Here I am)
I told y'all and if I haven't sold y'all
Just keep your ear to the street
You bitches have no idea what I'm about to unleash
And if you're wondering where's the proof
You should wait no longer 'cuz here's the truth
Who's hot they not
That's why I drop this shit
You cop put mine on [Incomprehensible]
Things just ain't gone be the same
Niggas who truth put up in the game
What is y'all [Incomprehensible]
If you didn't, then now you know
I just don't understand why nigga said
[Incomprehensible]

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Shari Watson (born 1972 in St. Louis, Missouri), known as Truth Hurts, is an American R&B singer. She is noted for her funky and powerful vocal style.
After signing to Dr. Dre's Aftermath Entertainment label, Truth Hurts first appeared on Busta Rhymes' 2001 hit single "Break Ya Neck" as a background vocalist. For her first solo LP Truthfully Speaking, issued on Aftermath in 2002, she enlisted the production talents of Dr. Dre, Timbaland, Hi-Tek, and DJ Quik. Her debut single, "Addictive," was a Top 10 hit in the United States, and featured a verse from hip hop artist, Rakim.

The song, produced by DJ Quik, utilized an uncleared sample of "Thoda Resham Lagta Hai" by Hindi artist Lata Mangeshkar. The copyright holders sued Aftermath and parent company Interscope Records for $500 million dollars, and issued an injunction against further sales or performances of the record. A judge later ruled that the album was not to be sold with out being stickered with proper credits for Mangeshkar.

In summer of 2002, Truth Hurts secured a high profile spot on the Smokin' Grooves tour with Lauryn Hill, Outkast, Cee-Lo, The Roots, Jurassic 5, and Erykah Badu.[3] However, following the buzz on "Addictive", Truth Hurts became relatively obscure, only contributing guest vocals to "The Watcher 2" on Jay-Z's Blueprint 2 album and "What" on Eve's Eve-Olution. To date, she remains as a one-hit wonder in both America and the UK. "Addictive" was followed up by a song called "The Truth" featuring R. Kelly on the chorus. The song underpeformed on American radio and video outlets. This was likely due in part to the firestorm of negative press Kelly received over sex crime allegations that hit media outlets shortly before the single's release.

Truth Hurts returned in 2004 with her second album, Ready Now, on Raphael Saadiq's independent Pookie Entertainment label. Its first single, "Ready Now", was released in the summer of 2004 without much fanfare, but being critically acclaimed due to its high quality, mainly because of the work of legendary Raphael Saadiq, who executively produced the album and produced most of the songs in it. Some sources state that a Georgia based record company is looking for Truth Hurts for a possible spot on a movie soundtrack. Dream Leader Ent CEO Carlton Richard has stated that he has been a long time fan of hers and would like to know if she would be interested in being on the soundtrack. No word yet on if and when this project will be available.
