Lyle Baker / VERS35, KJ‐52, Kelly from the Manifolds - Just Listen - Live 2021 Lyrics

I am not wise I just listen, pay attention
Open your eyes you'd be surprised where it gets you
It won't get you famous if that's what the aim is
Wisdom is infamous for nobody listening
If all you care about is popularity turn around cause
All you care about is selfish gain
The world will never revolve around your space
You're not the sun
You don't walk around and bring light to everyone
You steal it
Manipulator
Quit talking, quiet the activity slow down
You're lying to yourself it's tiring and you're wore out
You're bringing down the people around you whoa now
Setting fire to bridges relationships burned down
Slow down
And listen
Wisdom speaks low, love
Let it in
Before your mouth runs out
Before you open up and prove to everyone how
You don't think before you jump
You don't prepare before you run
You think it's funny and fun
That hot takes run the game
But small sparks set off flames
And if you burn it all down and it lands on you
What did you gain
Uh
What did you gain
See, I am not wise I just listen, pay attention
Wisdom cries out in the streets
Common sense will help you sleep
Until you open your eyes and see that it's so
Rare and unbelievably scarce
Everybody just hates and looks out for their own take
Nobody wants to dialogue and shake hands so hands make fists
Punch people and keyboards late night warriors
Go ahead verbally murdering
Anybody anyone who doesn't agree
We got that blood on our hands
Don't waste your time or your life
Just trying to prove that you're right
Pride kills wisdom
Slow down and just listen
Slow down
And listen
Wisdom speaks low, love
Let it in
Let it in, let it in, let it in
Yo, now, mmh
Uh, so just listen to what the Spirit say, yup
Cause you can hold on to a clearer day, uh
Cause He gonna just now clear a way
This ain't here to stay
Wipe every tear away, mmh
Cause He gonna just drive the fear away
Mighty to save
Right there when He cleared the grave
And I can see He's right here today
No matter what you face
I can tell you that He's here to say
Slow down, I know it's moving fast
I know you deal with things from your past
I know this thing ain't gonna last
He's right here, right there when when it's gonna crash
What you have now is all you need
Cause He promised now to never leave
And even if that's kinda hard to see take time to breathe
You can just hear Him speak
Slow down
And listen
Wisdom speaks low, love
Let it in
Let it in, let it in, let it in
Let it in, let it in, let it in
Oooh-oh let it in
Yeah
Let it in, let it in, let it in

I am not wise I just listen, pay attention
Open your eyes you'd be surprised where it gets you
It won't get you famous if that's what the aim is
