People Said

Yeah man…
Dem talk, talk, talk…
But know nothin'...
 
People said...
People say...
Think they wise,
Just replay.
People loud,
People sure,
Read one post,
Now they pure.
 
Scrollin’ deep,
Think it’s truth,
Click and share,
No real proof.
Big big talk,
Small small brain,
See one meme,
Scream again.
 
People said...
People say...
Got no clue,
Just delay.
 
Eyes on screen,
Mind on mute,
Feed the feed,
Lie so cute.
They don’t see,
They don’t seek,
Viral gods,
Every week.
 
Dem say "I know",
Dem say "I read"...
But mi ask: "You read what?"
— “A quote on a picture of a cat.”
 
People said...
People say...
Truth be gone,
Gone astray.
But me laugh,
Yes, me smile,
Me stay real,
All the while.
 
Scroll less, live more...
Yah, bless up!
 

You know...
People talk like parrots,
But them don’t fly.
They scroll all day,
But can’t walk a mile.
Everybody got opinions now —
Just not their own.
They read headlines...
But never read hearts.
So me?
Me stay quiet,
Me stay kind,
And me let the bassline do the talkin’...
[Percussion Break]
'Cause the truth...
It don’t trend, seen?
