Practice What I Preach

[Verse 1]
People, I think it's time we stop this runnin' around
This world is goin' too fast and we'd like to slow it down
Don't let 'em talk you into doin' what you don't want to
Just learn to say no and learn how to refuse

[Chorus]
'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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
'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

[Outro]
No, I'm not just talkin', 'cause I practice what I preach
