Who Can You Trust

(album: Life's Aquarium - 1999)

Tell me, who can you trust these days
'Cause people don't be about it like they say
Gotta be watching your back night and day
Who can you trust?

Tell me, who can you trust or not
The ones that be trying' to get what you got
Just listen to these words whatever you do
The only one you trust is you

People these days ain't it a shame the way they be
Please don't be fooled it's not the ones that you would think
There's things that's going on that you can't always see
This world is filled with jealousy and envy

Just like them people that be all up in your grill
Saying about claiming to know just how you feel
But, the very second that your back is turned
They're dragging your shit through the dirt

Tell me, who can you trust these days?
'Cause people don't be about it like they say
Gotta be watching your back night and day
Who can you trust?

Tell me, who can you trust or not
The ones that be trying' to get what you got
Just listen to these words whatever you do
The only one you trust is you

For every day I start to doubt the things
That people be about I guess that's just the way it is
Sometimes it's not the picture you know
The way people put on a show just to get up in your biz

Just watch your back, 'cause sometimes people
Creep like bats, sneaky and low
You may not belive, but I bet you will not see me on
The Jerry Springer Show, oh no, hell no

Tell me, who can you trust these days
'Cause people don't be about it like they say
Gotta be watching your back night and day
Who can you trust?

Tell me, who can you trust or not
The ones that be trying' to get what you got
Just listen to these words whatever you do
The only one you trust is you

They don't be about it like they say
Gotta be watching your back night and day
Don't like the way they play these silly games
Who can you trust these days?

Tell me, who can you trust these days
'Cause people don't be about it like they say
Gotta be watching your back night and day
Who can you trust?

Tell me, who can you trust or not
The ones that be trying' to get what you got
Just listen to these words whatever you do
The only one you trust is you

Who can you trust these days
'Cause people don't be about it like they say
Gotta be watching your back night and day
Who can you trust?

Tell me, who can you trust or not
The ones that be trying' to get what you got
Just listen to these words whatever you do
The only one you trust is you
