lyrics

06 make sure your eyes are fine

some folks got to speak their mind
got their piece to say
some folks walk on anyone
who stumbles in their way

you don't like the way i talk
you don't like where i've been
you don't like my manners much
and you don't like my friends

make sure your eyes are fine
when you're checking mine

some folks love to criticize
love to know they're right
some folks love to tear you down
do it day and night

mind your business and leave me be
'cause i got things to do
i’m well aware of my own faults
i need no help from you

i don't need you schoolin' me
like you're a holy man
i've been talking with the Man upstairs
and i know where i stand

some folks pick apart your words
trap you in your speech
some folks grab for any flaw
that passes near their reach

have a good look at yourself
might be work to do
i’ll take care of little ol' me
while you take care of you

your mama shoulda taught you better
it shouldn't be for me to tell ya
