Shut up

This song goes out
To all the people out there that be runnin’ they mouth
And they don’t know what
The hell they sayin’
Shut up!

Now that I’ve got my voice back let me start off by sayin’ that
I appreciate the fans around the world that had my back
And I just wanna thank God upstairs for keeping His hands on me
And keeping all the doctors focused through my surgery
Now, there’s a couple of things I gotta get off my chest
Some serious issues that I must address, so
Well let’s just get right to it:
People say that I was done
Said there was no way this time he’s gonna overcome
And even before the doctors was done and I could awake
A tsunami of rumors have come to wipe my career away
After 22 years of a blessed career
Had me lying in my hospital bed crying mad tears
But, just as I had many people hating me
I had so many people loving me
And let’s not forget the hood around the world puffing me
And to everybody that be callin’ me
Telling me what they be sayin’ about me
Bringin’ me all of this negative shit
Y’all the ones I ain’t f*ckin’ with
It’s time for me to evaluate
People that I let up in my space
Can I get a witness to all of this
When people all up in your business

Tell ‘em (Shut up)
Tell ‘em (Shut up)
Tell ‘em (Shut up)
(I’m talking to you)
Tell ‘em all (Shut up)
Tell ‘em all (Shut up)
Tell ‘em all (Shut up)
And tell ‘em (I’m talking to you)

He’s washed up, he’s lost it
He ain’t got it no more
Well I’m here to tell you today
Boy you haters are so slow
And it saddens me to know
Some of ya’ll want me to go away
When it’s for me to go
My God is gonna orchestrate
Until the end, I will accept the stones
Pray and just try to get along
But sometimes it’s so hard for me to be strong
See, I got kids and I’m tryin to love ‘em
So many things I’m tryin to juggle
But I never thought this music would become my struggle (ooh)
The news said I lost my house
My own people put me down
And my friends no longer around (noo)
But you see deep underneath the surface
And i feel something’s working
In my behalf, the victory is near (yeah)
See, my future ain’t my past
It’s not the end of the hourglass
Who said it would not last?
Fans sick they ass

Tell ‘em (Shut up)
Shut up (Shut up)
Tell ‘em (Shut up)
I’m talking (I’m talking to you)
Say uuh (Shut up)
(Shut up)
Shut up ya’ll (Shut up)
(I’m talking to you)

Now seriously after all these hits
And melodies and memories
You compare me to someone else
O.M.G.
Now no offense to the other artist but come on, dawg
Now, let’s be honest
How many babies been made off me
O.M.G.
Seriously, you gonna act like that
Sit there like it ain’t no truth to that
Looking at me like i ain’t talking stats
O.M.G.
Every boy, every girl,
Every child, around the world,
From the 90s up until today
Was made off me.

Shut up (Shut up)
Shut up (Shut up)
Shut up (Shut up)
(I’m talking to you)
Shut up (Shut up)
Shut up (Shut up)
About my life (Shut up)
About my life (I’m talking to you)

If the shoe fits, hey (Shut up)
(Shut up)
(Shut up)
Could you come walk a step in mine? (I’m talking to you)

Then just shut up
Freedom of speech
Thank God for my voice.
