Letra de Don't Say Anything

[Verse 1]
I was told
"You better give up your dreams, you stupid boy. Why don't get a nine to five? Shut your mouth, sit down, and stay in line."
I know that there is more to life
Than racing rats at the cost of my mind
Wake up, work, sleep, and do it again
I'm done
Peace out
Fuck this
I quit
[Chorus]
My mother told me
"If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything."
My mother told me
"If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything."
[Verse 2]
I was told
"You better give up your dreams. Go on and follow the leader, and sell yourself cheaper."
They built me up to tear me down. I have to take a stand
Before I'm caught in caustic quicksand
I was told
"You better give up your dreams. They'll hold you down and won't amount to anything."
[Chorus]
My mother told me
"If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything."
My mother told me
"If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything."
[Post-Chorus 1]
Shut up, and stay down
Get your act together
Stop screwing around
Shut up, and stay down
Get your act together
Stop fucking around
[Post-Chorus 2]
But my father taught me to speak up for myself
Follow through, and stay true
And know when to say farewell
But my father taught me to speak up for myself
Follow through, and stay true
And know when to say farewell
But my father taught me to speak up for myself
Follow through, and stay true
And know when to say farewell
