Lyrics

People, I think it's time we

It's time for people to stop being so active and restless.

Stop this runnin' around

The world is moving too quickly, and we want to slow down.

This world is goin' too fast and

Don't allow others to persuade you into doing things you don't desire.

We'd like to slow it down

Learn to decline and say no when necessary.

Don't let 'em talk you into doin'

You have no debts to anyone other than God; pursue what you love in life.

What you don't want to

Don't force situations that aren't progressing smoothly.

Just learn to say no and learn how to refuse

The worst person to deceive is yourself.


'Cause you don't owe nobody nothin'

Practicing what you preach is essential.

Except God above go out and go after the

Maybe you don't always follow societal expectations.

Things in life you love

Even if given tasks you dislike, sometimes conforming is necessary.

Don't try to force it if

Seeing yourself conforming to societal rules might be uncomfortable.

It ain't goin' smooth

There's a limit to how much discomfort you can endure.

The one person that you should never

You don't owe explanations for pursuing your own happiness.

Try to fool is you

Be honest with yourself; self-deception hinders progress.

You can make it to the top but

Success is subjective; only you know when you've reached it.

Only you'll know when to reach

Emphasizing the importance of practicing what is advocated.

And I'm not just talkin'

Personal responsibility for pursuing one's desires.

'cause I practice what I preach

Reiterating the commitment to practicing what is preached.


Maybe you don't do all the

Things you're supposed to

-

Your boss gives you a job

-

You hate but you smile, that's the rule

-

You see yourself playin' the game

-

And it's rubbin' you wrong

-

You don't know how much more you'll take

-

How long can it go on

-

'Cause you don't owe nobody nothin'

-

Except God above go out and go after the

-

Things in life you love

-

Don't try to force it if

-

It ain't goin' smooth

-

The one person that you should never

-

Try to fool is you

-

You can make it to the top but

-

Only you'll know when to reach

-

And I'm not just talkin'

-

'cause I practice what I preach

-

No, I'm not just talkin'

-

'cause I practice what I preach
