[Intro]
(Ooh-ooh) Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
(Ooh-ooh) Ooh-ooh
(Ooh-ooh) Mmm
(Ooh-ooh)
[Verse 1]
Everybody got something to say
There's too many Indians tryna be chiefs
Opinions runnin' 'round like a wild goose chase
We don't know what we think we know anyway
[Refrain]
Mmm, don't talk about it
Not too much, don't talk about it
Mmm, don't talk about it
Not too much, don't talk about it
[Verse 2]
The truth can feel like a slap to the face
We're stubborn at heart, will it ever change?
Tryna bully everybody in our way
We don't know what we think we know anyway
[Refrain]
Mmm, don't talk about it (Don't talk about it)
Not too much, don't talk about it (No)
Mmm, don't talk about it (Don't talk about it)
Not too much, don't talk about it
[Chorus]
And look at you, your mouth still runnin'
Like ya already been there and done it
'Cause we all gotta listen to somethin'
'Cause we don't know what we think we know anyway
One day you're gonna have to stop runnin'
One day you're gonna have to confront it
'Cause we gotta think before we speak in the moment
We don't know what we think we know anyway
[Verse 3]
Hashtags thrown around like hotcakes
Oh, Aunt Jemima syrup ain't good anyways
Fiending for attention is a bitter taste
Tell me how we got addicted to the stupid things, oh
[Refrain]
Mmm, don't talk about it
Not too much, don't talk about it (No)
Mmm, don't talk about it
Not too much, don't talk about it
[Verse 4]
Freedom is a march in Minnesota streets
Oh, marching to the rhythm of I can't breathe (Can't breathe)
Fists up are clouded by tear gas streams
There's a kingdom and it's gonna cost everything
[Refrain]
Ooh, don't talk about it
Not too much, don't talk about it (No)
Mmm, don't talk about it
Not too much, don't talk about it
[Chorus]
And look at you, your mouth still runnin'
Like ya already been there and done it
'Cause we all gotta listen to somethin'
'Cause we don't know what we think we know anyway
One day you're gonna have to stop runnin'
One day you're gonna have to confront it
'Cause we gotta think before we speak in the moment
'Cause we don't know what we think we know anyway
[Verse 5]
Grandmama, fall on your knees and pray
And tell us what the good Lord has to say
We need to wake up before it gets too late
Let love turn us away from our wicked ways
[Bridge]
'Cause we don't know what we think we know anyway, yeah
We don't know what we think we know anyway
Oh, oh, uh, oh yeah
Anyway, anyway, way
[Outro]
Like all, all
Like, like
I'll tell you what freedom is to me
No fear
I mean really no fear
If I, if I could have that half of my life
No fear
Bu it is something to really, really feel
