Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They said closed mouths don't get fed, uh
Well, I'm starving to speak, I borrowed some meat
Go butcher these words and call it a tweet
You are what you eat, you can't wing this so walk on your feet
Words flyin' out the mouth, it's a cage match with language
And we all fluent, it's dangerous, seen 'em aiming
On the internet and we like it
You told me all your business now you callin' me psychic
Your palms red, bloody with the blood of they brother
It's cold-blooded, towed off so even 316's won't make us love
If the bottom line is beneath us we stand on it
Like it's Regis asking who is Jesus?
One in a trillion, is it pilgrims killing natives?
Tongues made up of gun cases and nun faces
We done made it a habit to run our mouth like the bank can't cash it
That chase pay ain't worth your bracket that she talk
Be quiet
[Verse 2]
Hush
Blah, blah-blah-blah
That's how we sound, we talk about where they sounding
We walk around with these nouns in these towns
And these people, things, and these words and these verse
And they heard and they servin' the person who served it
What I'm saying is it's serving the person who heard it
Is it worthless or words spit, bent till it's cursive
Is it worship or church went missing? It's urgent
Oh, I hear 'em, yeah, they sound like Earth when it's virgin
Birds chirping, it's a tweet again, too many words
Oh, the nerdy fingers snitching, tell  'em who I really serve
It's too late to edit it, too pay the  rhetoric
Of the top it's Lupe irreverence
Who said the truth is irrelevant? Devils stay talkin'
What kind of coffin is caught in the mouth of a killer
Tell 'em whoever listens when the devil tell 'em stay callin'
Image bearers another name, you live for another's fame
It's best to be quiet
[Verse 3]
Y'all just be yappin', yappin', yappin' at the mouth
Didn't your mama tell you
If you ain't got nothing good to say
Then don't say it at all?
But no, don't nobody listen to they mama no more
They just let they mouth talk
They just, they just, they just don't wanna be quiet
Some of y'all need to read Proverbs
I don't know what's going on with the kids nowadays
They just go, and go, and go, and go, and go
