Listening
Instead of speaking
You could listen
Give it a shot
You don't need to talk
I talk a lot, I play with my phone
Whenever I am out, whenever I'm at home
Yeah, I talk a lot, except for when I don't
Ignoring everything because I'm in the zone
Why should I leave the house?
I do it less and less
I'm not chasing clout, I'm not there to impress
Plus, when people are around, I get awkward quick
First I have to speak, then I'm regretting it
I have a bad habit of cutting people off
When it occurs I'm releasing my words
Before I lose my thought
It would seem I'm in the midst of a change
A change you've been witnessing
I could stand to develop the power
The power of listening
I'm owning up, it's something I can fix
I'm an older dog attempting some new tricks
Think it scares my friends, they wonder who this is
They put their fingers up, shaped like a crucifix
Used to speak my mind, I've done it now and then
I've seen glaring eyes, I won't do that again
If I have my way, I'll just be staying in
Then I won't have a need for changing anything
I have a bad habit of cutting people off
When it occurs I'm releasing my words
Before I lose my thought
It would seem I'm in the midst of a change
A change you've been witnessing
I could stand to develop the power
The power of listening
It would seem I'm in the midst of a change
A change you've been witnessing
I could stand to develop the power
The power of listening
Instead of speaking
You could listen
Give it a shot
You don't need to talk
You could listen
Give it a shot
You don't need to talk
I talk a lot, I play with my phone
Whenever I am out, whenever I'm at home
Yeah, I talk a lot, except for when I don't
Ignoring everything because I'm in the zone
Why should I leave the house?
I do it less and less
I'm not chasing clout, I'm not there to impress
Plus, when people are around, I get awkward quick
First I have to speak, then I'm regretting it

I could stand to develop the power
The power of listening
Instead of speaking
You could listen
Give it a shot
You don't need to talk
