Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
I'll tell you right now that it ain't no use
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
Pain was hunting me down but I gave him the slip
I left the city through a tunnel and I headed for the skids
With a-rain or oil in the morphine drip
Pain was a-hunting me down but I gave him the slip
And I fell in love with the biblical twins
And there's thirty-four summers between the two of them
I gave one my ego, I gave one my id
Yeah, I got to get back to my pretty little twins
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
I'll tell you right now that it ain't no use
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
I was lost for a year in those almond trees
The sun was rising in the south and setting in the east
I was a half awake, I was half asleep
I thought I'd never get out of those almond trees
And don't think too slow in circling the sun
You'll get buried alive when the caterpillar comes
Tapping your time on congo drums
Just don't think too slow in the circling sun
I met a black-skinned man with an ice cream grin
And a blonde afghan with some heroin
And we moved to the mountains where the highway ends
And I got myself that ice cream grin
So don't search too hard for that Aztec gold
Well, I owe Cortez, you'll lose your soul
Turn an honest man into Diablo
Yeah, don't trade your soul for no Aztec gold
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
You look in my eyes, you can (and you'll) see the proof
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth

American Diary è un gruppo musicale di genere indie rock, attivo tra la fine degli anni '90 e l'inizio del nuovo millennio. Nonostante una discografia limitata a due EP, "Brightest Colors" e "The Brightest Colors", il gruppo ha saputo conquistare un seguito di appassionati grazie al suo sound caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili e testi introspettivi. Le loro canzoni esplorano temi come l'amore, la perdita e la ricerca di identità in un mondo sempre più complesso. Nonostante la mancanza di informazioni dettagliate sulla formazione del gruppo e sulle sue origini, American Diary rimane un enigma affascinante per gli amanti della musica indie rock.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
