Your Word

[Verse 1] [16 bars of complex drum solo] We live in a time Where a promise has no meaning They shake a hand firmly Their act is demeaning Talk big at the start Then ghost you right away They smile to your face Then don’t give the time of day You words are smoke Your promise a lie Tell the truth for once Before you die [Pre-Chorus] Tell me once Tell me straight If you mean it Don’t be late Say it once Let it land Built on truth Your word is your brand [Chorus] Today your word Don’t mean shit Say it to my face Then stand on it Today your word Don’t mean shit Speak the truth Or I’m done with it [Verse 2] There used to be Value in a name A deal was a deal A man didn’t play a game Too many smiles A knife hidden behind Too many promises No integrity to find I kept receipts And kept my cool You lied to me You broke the rule You want my trust Then do what you say If you brake your word A thief you will portray [Pre-Chorus] Tell me once Tell me straight If you mean it Don’t be late Say it once Let it land Built on truth Your word is your brand [Chorus] Today your word Don’t mean shit Say it to my face Then stand on it Today your word Don’t mean shit Speak the truth Or I’m done with it [Bridge] I’ve seen the best Turn cold and vague Seen good intentions Go up in flames So if you swear it Do what you say Keep your word Or go away [Final Chorus] Today your word Don’t mean shit Say it to my face Then stand on it Today your word Don’t mean shit Speak the truth Or I’m done with it Today your word Don’t mean shit I’ve heard enough I won’t forget Today your word Don’t mean shit Mean what you say Or don’t say it!
