Man in the mirror is forsaken trust
Will haunt him wherever he goes
The knees of the devil will shake my love
If I was to break what I know

And time after time when I feel those vibes
Frustration rises again
Wishing those times you could see my eyes
Remember once more who I am

True to yourself my love
Be true to yourself
True to yourself my love
Be true to yourself

A man on the street with his cardboard box
Feeding his dog with his change
Told me loved her with all his heart
Without her he'd never be the same

And sometimes at night when I close my eyes
I think of them cold in the rain
As long as he's holding her close by his side
Together they'll always be okay

True to yourself my love
Be true to yourself
True to yourself my love
Be true to yourself

Winds have been clipped once or twice my love
The strength of your legs took their place
Your father he taught you to be loved the proper way
Your mother, the rock in that space

And people are people, most do their best
For those good people we are blessed
Sticks and stones may just break our bones
But nothing can ruin our nest

True to yourself my love
Be true to yourself
True to yourself my love
Be true to yourself
