I’ve been told, I am direct, blunt and open
Not afraid to call a spade a spade
Bordering on, too outspoken
Many friends, they did not stay
I’ve been told, I am a mirror
Themselves they will not see
They think I’m frank in error
And do not hear my plea
I am balsy and straightforward
To get the point across
Life is too damn short
With too much bloody loss
There’s a reason why I’m candid
My honesty is clear
Truth, if you can stand it
Will dissipate your fear
