From the recording Drifter
The song fits well in the Chicago Blues tradition, following in the footsteps of artists like Muddy Waters and Buddy Guy, with a contemporary message delivered through traditional blues structures.Lothar Honnens Boxland Music
Lyrics
Verse 1:
Police ain't the criminals, that's what I know
And criminals ain't victims, that's how it goes
Truth stands alone, yeah, beyond what you feel
Reality's dealing, and that's what is real
Verse 2:
Words ain't violence, hear what I say
And cancel culture ain't justice, no not today
When your feelings get hurt, it don't make you right
Truth keeps on shining through the darkest night
Chorus:
Truth stands alone (Truth stands alone)
Beyond what you're feeling (Beyond what you feel)
Truth stands alone (Truth stands alone)
Reality's dealing (Reality deals)
Bridge:
Your feelings matter, yes they do
But they can't change what is true
Truth keeps moving, straight ahead
Despite the tears that have been shed
