Trae Tha Truth is back, and he has a new name. Call him King Truth from now on. Truth came through with the lead single from his upcoming album Hometown Hero, which is expected March 16. Trae has been leading rescue efforts in his hometown of Houston since the devasting Hurricane Harvey hit the Texas city. Being involved in relief efforts to this day, the rapper has recorded a song in tribute of those who have helped in the relief effort, as well as detailing what he's been through as a result of the natural disaster.

King Truth's efforts have been widely recognized in Houston, being awarded his own Trae Day on July 22. The track is a touching account of a disaster that was heavily reported for a few weeks, and then generally forgotten about. Truth's album will feature Young Thug, Mozzy, Lil Boosie and more.

Quotable Lyrics:

Everything was lost, help denied
Shelters closing, now they back outside
Home is gone, it ain't nowhere to go
