Sugarcoat It Lyrics


Movin' at the speed of sound
There has never been a lull in the motion
Conversations swirled around
Strangers questioning their devotion
Welcome to the world of talk shows
Where everybody seems to knowPeople talk and never listen
Come to their conclusions
So we'll feed 'em with the spoon
That makes the medicine go downBaby, you got it, baby, we wrote it
Maybe you thought that we sugarcoat it
Ain't gonna hide it, gotta expose it
Yeah, we're gonna let our light shineStanding on the stage of life
We are waiting for the final curtain
You can take a seat and watch tonight
But you're gonna get more than you came forBam and welcome to our jam
Where folks are getting down
The Jesus freaks from
Every part of this here townYou can try and ask us why

We came to this solution
Though words may fly
You can't deny
It's in the air tonightBaby, you got it, baby, we wrote it
Maybe you thought that we sugarcoat it
Ain't gonna hide it, gotta expose it
Yeah, we're gonna let our light shineBaby, you got it, baby, we wrote it
Maybe you thought that we sugarcoat it
Ain't gonna hide it, gotta expose it
Yeah, we're gonna let our light shine
Let our light shine, let our light shine
Let us shine, let us shineBoom, they thought we'd change our tune
They thought that we'd go bust
They thought we'd crumble
Like my grandma's flaky crustKapow, up in the here and now
The truth is screaming big
A light so bright whether day or night
It can't be hidBaby, baby, you got it,
Baby, we wrote it, ain't gonna hide it
Yeah, we're gonna let our love light shineBaby, you got it, baby, we wrote it
Maybe you thought that we sugarcoat it
Ain't gonna hide it, gotta expose it
Yeah, we're gonna let our light shineLet your love shine, let your love shine
Let your love shine, let your love light shine
Your love light shineLet your love shine, let your love shine
Let your love shine, let your love light shine
Sugarcoat it

dc Talk is made up of Toby McKeehan (TobyMac), Michael Tait, and Kevin Max.

The three met while they were young men at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. They formed the band dc Talk (a reference to Washington D.C., but later marketed as 'decent Christian talk' by their label) and, as of the year 2000, spent twelve solid years together, performing all over the world, recording 6 albums, and earning many awards, including 4 Grammy awards.

Their music, aimed at a younger audience, combined hip-hop, rap, and R&B sensibilities and filled a gap in 1980s Christian Music and gave them a unique niche. Their first three albums, dc Talk, Nu Thang, and Free At Last started from their rap/hip-hop roots but increasingly included melodic vocal rock influences. Their 1995 studio album, Jesus Freak, continued this musical evolution by eshewing almost all rap elements and adopting a harder modern rock/grunge sound on many songs, especially the title track. Their most recent studio album, Supernatural, draws on their previous efforts while moving towards mainstream pop stylings.

Their signature sound in all albums is their use of the three members' different vocal skills separately and together. They are often lauded for their lyrical sophistication, addressing many themes in Christian theology, faith, and practice.

After more than ten years together as a group, they are taking a break in recording together to pursue their own activities outside of the band, and launch solo careers in recording music. Michael Tait formed his own band, Tait, and has most recently served as the frontman for Newsboys. Toby McKeehan has released music under the name TobyMac, and has been the most sucessful of the three. Kevin Max has released two solo albums of his own.
