Album: The Truth If It Kills
Tough love ain't somethin' in the dictionary
Sometimes you want to run and hide
Tough love is not in the itinerary
When you bring it up it comes from deep inside
Tough love will take you to the edge of things
Tough love doesn't happen at night
Tough love is calling all the players in
Tough love is the starting of the fight
If you gonna play
Then you gotta say
You know that I am ready to pay
Tough love borders on the edge of hate
Tough love will take you to the line
Your friends sometimes become your enemies
And truth becomes apparent with the pass of time
Tough love is playing like the advocate
Tough love is doing it right
Tough love is meaning you'll initiate
Your own awareness and your own self might
If you gonna play
Then you gotta say
You know that I am ready to pay
If you gonna play
Then you gotta say
You know that I am ready to pay
Tough love is punching at the weaknesses
Tough love is when you light that spark
Tough love is love that is extraordinary
Coming from the deepest part of all our hearts
Tough love is not the fawning synchophant
Tough love doesn't have no smiles
Tough love is knowing when to carry through
And knowing that you'll make it through the rest of life
If you gonna play
Then you gotta say
You know that I am ready to pay
