Words Are Few

There are times when I don't wanna speak
Grab a pen, scratch your chin, make a beat
Maybe not, smokin' pot on the beach
Paranoid with my boys, where my keys?
And my head in the clouds, is that him?
And my boys trippin' hard like, "Nigga, chill"
Someone new with the mouthful of boot
Now my boys, they come in with the deal

Yeah, I'm not mad at you
Things I'm going through make me act the fool
Please don't think I'm cruel
Really normally I'm cool
There is nothing you can do
Hey
When my words are few
Things ain't what they seem
Feeling like I'm fooling me
I know God is calling me
I'm not where I'm s'pposed to be
Sitting here smoking trees
When I should be on my knees
When my words are few

Why you hounding me (why you hounding me) in the house of the Lord?
Conscience, guilty
Ain't in no mood for no parking lot prophecies
That's why act an addiction, you can't find me
Oh ain't no smiles, ain't no joke
No bitches, please
Ain't no rest for my soul til' I come clean (come clean)
Gon' hear from the Lord if I speak
So back off and let me eat, let me feast (let me feast)

I'm not mad at you
Things I'm going through make me act the fool
Please don't think I'm cruel
Really normally I'm cool
There is nothing you can do
Hey
When my words are few
Things ain't what they seem
Feeling like I'm fooling me
I know God is calling me
I'm not where I'm supposed to be
Sitting here smoking trees
When I should be on my knees
When my words are few

I know that I (I know that I)
chose to backslide, but now I know the way
I was born and raised in this thing
And that's something I chose to do
Church all my life (church all my life)
I ain't yet stepped outside but now I feel the light calling me
Back to the fall (back to the fall)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Love, love, love, love
Yessir
Sing that song nephew
Lord knows
Praise his name, yes
(Yes) Clap your hands now

Oh man, you took me to church on that one nephew
Hey, when my words (when my words are few)
Oh if I couldn't say a word,
I would just wave my hands (you gotta sing!)
When my words are few
Let my work, let my work speak for me
When my words are few
I'm speechless
When my words are few (yessir)
When my words are few
Slade (yessir)
Take 'em to the altar (yeah)
When my words are few (preach, church)
When my words are few

Oh if I couldn't sing a word, I would just raise my hand (yes Lord)
When my words are few, oh (there's nothing left to say)
Stay strong and let your work (speak to me)
Speak, speak to me lord, speak to me
Speak to me, yeah (speak to me)
Speak to me (speak to me, Lord)
Speak to me, Lord
Ooh, come with me
When my words are few
When my words are few, oh
When my words are few, ow (my words, my words, my words)
When my words are few (yeah, yeah)
When my words are few
Feels good in my soul, chil'ren
When my words are few
When my my my my my my my my words are few
When my words are few
When my words are few
Op' heart, fam heart, K-Mart
When my words are few
When my words are few
When my words are few
When my words are few
When my words are few
When my words are few
