Well, I just got to tell you that

You can't hide from yourself, no
Everywhere you go there you are

The truth is a light
A light shining within
When you look in the mirror
Do you see a foe or a friend?

You can lie all you wanna
But one day you're gonna
Gonna breakdown, breakdown and let it all out

You see that
You can't hide from yourself, no
Everywhere you go there you are
I just got to say that
You can't hide from yourself
Everywhere you go there you are

Make peace with yourself before you can love another
Understand who and what you are before you can go any further

You can lie all you wanna
But one day you're gonna
Gonna breakdown, breakdown and let it all out

You'll see that
You can't hide from yourself
Everywhere you go there you are
I just got to tell you
You can't hide from yourself
Everywhere you go there you are

You can't hide, you can't hide
Look in the mirror, there you are
Walking down the street, well
Look in the store window, there you go
There you are
You can't hide no, no, no
You may run, no, but you can't hide
You can't hide brothers, you can't hide

You can't hide sisters, you can't hide
You can't hide no, you can't hide
No matter where you go, well, there you are
You can't run from yourself
There you are
You can't run no
You can't run no

You can't hide from yourself
Everywhere you go there you are
No matter where you turn
You can't hide from yourself
Everywhere you go there you are

You might do somebody wrong today
But I swear you gonna make up for it tomorrow
So you gotta reap what you sow
No matter what you do, where you go
You can't hide, you can't hide
You can't hide no, from yourself

You've gotta deal with yourself
You've gotta sleep with yourself
You've gotta be with yourself all the time
Don't matter what you do
No matter what you do
Don't matter what you do

No matter what you do wrong, you can't hide
You've gotta be there
You've gotta be there
You can't hide, you can't hide
No matter where you go, brother, you can't hide
You might as well face up to the truth
You're gonna have to do it one day
I don't care
You can't hide
You can't hide
You can't hide
You can't hide
You can't hide
