People Talk

People talk

That's what they do

But they don't understand

How me still a push an' go through

Yes they laugh

They call me names

But they just don't get it

How dem see me a hol' my head up just the same

When dem see me, dem just keep on talkin'

Me nuh see them, I just keep on walkin'

I've got my pride

Me nah go show my bad side

Some a dem see me as a big pushover

Let me fi dead, dem think I'm gonna kill over

Oh no, not I

I and I will survive

Never let them get you down (Get you down)

Never let them see you frown (See you frown)

Never let them take away your levity

Live your life and be free

Never let them get you down (Get you down)

Never let them see you frown (See you frown)

Never let them lead you astray, starting today

Live your life and live it your way

When you go through heartache

When you feelin' pain

When you en' up in a desert

An' a wonda why the hell it nah rain

When dem pass dem judgement

And every word lef' a stain

When dem talk up di things dem

Just fi mash yuh life an' give you bad name

Dem think you weak but a deso dem blunda

Bad mind and think dem lef' you business asunder

Don't give dem that power

Show dem you can be stronger

Just tek up yourself an' mek di whole a dem wonda

How you get up when them a try keep you under

Don't believe their lies

Show dem that you will rise

Never let them get you down (Get you down)

Never let them see you frown (See you frown)

Never let them take away your levity

Live your life and be free

Never let them get you down (Get you down)

Never let them see you frown (See you frown)

Never let them lead you astray, starting today

Live your life your way

I say people talk
