Heard Em Say

(heard 'em say... yeah)

They want to talk but they never walk the mile

I keep my distance and I wear a quiet smile Walking through

the shadow of the doubt they try to throw

But they don't know the places that I'm bound to go

So let them whisper let them carry all their weight

I'm staying focused early morning working late

I heard 'em say that I would never make it out (heard

'em say) I heard 'em say we'd fall to fear and live

in doubt (heard 'em say) But we're still standing under brighter skies

today

No matter what they try to write we find a way

Building up a fortress out of stones they cast aside No more

running from the truth no more places left to hide

Every lesson learned is etched into the stone Finding power in the

hours spent working all alone

We write the future they just talking 'bout the past

This is built on solid ground and meant to last

I heard 'em say that I would never make it out (heard

'em say) I heard 'em say we'd fall to fear and live

in doubt

(heard 'em say) But we're still standing under brighter skies today

No matter what they try to write we find a way

Yeah,

heard 'em say... (heard 'em say, oh

yeah)

Just talkin'...
