Susan T. Aparejo - Being Guilty

Is it guilty to tell the truth?
Is it guilty if you stand for it?
The truth they said will set you free.
Yet, they force you to say,
The opposite of what it may.

Asking me if I am guilty?
For taking the penalty,
Of what the truth I say?
Whatever you call me,
I still remain as I can be,
Don't force me to live my way,
The truth will set me free,
So never I feel being guilty!

You want me to tell a lie?
And you even curse me to die?
Your friends never ever say 'Hi! '
Who cares if you deceive them in your cry
And our relation is not an apple pie,
What matter most is the truth that apply,
Even in all aspects you deny,
I am willing to say goodbye,
For the young generation's eyes.
