Act Like You Talk

Alborosie Jahneration pon the track
Deh pon the track fi make me you rock
Watch them !

You're claiming the truth
But you mouth full a lies, lies, lies, lies
You better act like you talk
Act like you talk now
Act like you talk now

Hypocrites and liars we a bun dem down
Dem dress up inna disguise when dem roam around
In public you're a star and what you say astound
But your friends know you're phony and you're just a clown
You two-face like Harvey Dent
Gwaan like yuh so confident
An influencial preacher
Don't take this as a compliment
You look genuine, but you just a pretender
Brag 'bout your values
But you got the wrong behavior
Whether you a politician, a successful businessman
So many principles yet so likkle achievement
Unno betta show suspicion, lying is a tradition
Hiding the truth is so much more convenient, hey

You're claiming the truth
But you mouth full a lies, lies, lies, lies
You better act like you talk
Act like you talk now
Act like you talk now
You preach righteousness, tell the people be wise
Practice what you advertise
You better act like you talk
Act like you talk now
Act like you talk now

You betta act like you talk
Watch the steps weh you walk
Say your dogs dem a bark
Weh you know bout the dark
Neva bad from the start
Just a youth with good heart
But society at fault
So you choose the wrong part
Tribulation there is no safe zone
Some feel the beat but they never hear the sound
In too deep, six feet you a go dung
Jahneration Alborosie a hold the crown

You're claiming the truth
But you mouth full a lies, lies, lies, lies
You better act like you talk
Act like you talk now
Act like you talk now
You preach righteousness, tell the people be wise
Practice what you advertise
You better act like you talk
Act like you talk now
Act like you talk now

Bag a lies you're telling
To your friends and family
You are not the man the people say you used to be
Every day you're getting closer to the cemetery
Endin up in a grave's gonna be your salary
Stop fooling us !
Nowadays you're seen as the man
No one cyan trust
Change your position
Or dem go make you bite di dust
Seek fi di truth if you no want a gun fi buss
Ah no every hope lost !
Raise another banner
Your reputation is know from Paris to Ghana
Truth a keep you safe like a Talisman
Clean up your dirty mind and avoid the drama
P-P-PAW PAW PAW !

You're claiming the truth
But you mouth full a lies, lies, lies, lies
You better act like you talk

Act like you talk now
You preach righteousness, tell the people be wise
Practice what you advertise
