Pay Close Attention

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 5 months ago 1 min read

{Verse]

When it comes to truth

Who do you trust

So many Voices are loud

but filled with nonsense

They shine so bright

but the light is cold

Promises of silver

But hearts full of fool’s gold

[Chorus]

Please Listen to me now...

Please Listen to my words

Always pay close attention to

Who you pay close attention to

Not every word they say is true or sent from up above

Not every hand reaching out

Is reaching out with good intentions and love

Always pay close attention to

Who you pay close attention to

[Verse 2]

Some will preach fire

but their hearts are made of stone

Some will call you family

But then leave you cold and alone

Their robes may be clean and white

But their souls are soiled and gray

And they don't always know they're leading you astray

[Prechorus]

The louder they shout

The less you should hear

Truth walks quiet

Because There's nothing to fear

[Chorus]

Please Listen to me now...

Please Listen to my words

Always pay close attention to

Who you pay close attention to

Not every word they say is true or sent from up above

Not every hand reaching out

Is reaching out with good intentions and love

Always pay close attention to

Who you pay close attention to

Please Listen to me now...

Please Listen to my words

Always pay close attention to

Who you pay close attention to
