Fred Rogers — The Truth Will Make Me Free

What if I were very, very sad And all I did was smile? I wonder after a while What might become of my sadness? What if I were very, very angry And all I did was sit And never think about it? What might become of my anger? Where would they go, and what would they do If I couldn't let them out? Maybe I'd fall, maybe get sick Or doubt But what if I could know the truth And say just how I feel? I think I'd learn a lot that's real About freedom I'm learning to sing a sad song when I'm sad I'm learning to say I'm angry when I'm very mad I'm learning to shout I'm getting it out I'm happy, learning Exactly how I feel inside of me I'm learning to know the truth I'm learning to tell the truth Discovering truth will make me free
