a. malik - speak good or keep silent كلمات أغنية
[chorus]
why’d i have to say that? gotta find a way that my words need to stay back
i know that was not right, should of had a stoplight, didn’t need to backbite (i didn’t need to backbite)
speak good (i didn’t need to backbite) or keep silent (i shouldn’t ever backbite)
(that’s what the prophet said)
speak good or keep silent
(that’s what the prophet said)
[verse 1]
uh, yeah, i was chilling with my old crew
couple guys came to town, hangin’ like we used to
we started talkin’ ’bout some brothers that we all knew
what they all doin’ now, stuff they be up to
so they asked me about a brother that i knew, i said
‘let me not start, ’cause that brother’s got issues’
i shoulda stopped thеre and tried to changed thе subject
but their eyes lit up like they hadn’t had enough yet
i started talkin’ ’bout the brother, how he’s this and that
‘lex luthor mindset’; gossip like kryptonite
it’s a drug and people love to inhale
but this kinda intel will only put you in h_ll!
[chorus]

(that’s what the prophet said)

(that’s what the prophet said)
[verse 2]
now, i only spoke the truth; at least what i knew of it
i tried to be fair, not to paint him like a hooligan
but like that game telephone, truth is never left alone
we relish in embellishin’ everything that we pass along
they passed it on: facebook, twitter
misuse of these makes the devil’s playbook bigger
’cause i found out later: i had the wrong info
there was stuff that i didn’t know; it wasn’t that simple!
but now it’s too late, my words spreading like cancer
destroyed the brother’s honor ’cause i tried to be gangsta
imagine on qiyyama, the brother says, ‘thanks, bro
for giving me your good deeds’, and now i’m left blank, uh!
[chorus]

(that’s what the prophet said)
speak good or keep silent

[verse 3]
now, many take it lightly, i’m very concerned though!
angels they be writing, inside of they journal!
forgiveness i do plead, then fix with it good deeds
and quickly, before i end up inside a inferno!
uh! speak good or keep silent
my hands may be calm, but my tongue was straight violent!
so now, i try imagine my brother like he was right there
if i say anything about him, he should not care!
he would just smile, knowing well that i held back
you could never tell that we got issues to nail out
keep it anonymous, unless it’s a necessity
be careful though, ’cause that’s how the devil, he gets the best of me
[chorus]
why’d i have to say that? gotta find a way that my words need to stay back
i know that was not right, shoulda had a stoplight, didn’t need to backbite (i didn’t need to backbite)
speak good (i didn’t need to backbite) or keep silent (i shouldn’t ever backbite)
(that’s what the prophet said)
speak good or keep silent
(that’s what the prophet said)
