If it’s True Reeve Carney, André De Shields, Afra Hines, Timothy Hughes, John Krause, Kimberly Marable & Ahmad Simmons

[ORPHEUS]
If it's true what they say
If there's nothing to be done
If it's true that it's too late
And the girl I love is gone
If it's true what they say

[ORPHEUS, spoken]
Is this how the world is?

[ORPHEUS]
To be beaten and betrayed and then be told that nothing changes?
It'll always be like this?
If it's true what they say
I'll be on my way

[HERMES, spoken]
And the boy turned to go
'Cause he thought no one could hear
But everybody knows that walls have ears

[HERMES]
And the workers heard him

[WORKERS]
If it's true what they say
