jessica simpson - practice what you preach lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
you taught me how to stand up
on two feet
head, heart and hands up
giving everything
you said, “when everyone follows, be the one to lead”
you said, “hit the ground running down the road less traveled”
(hit the ground running down the road less traveled)

[verse 2]
you taught me how to love somebody
just like you
you taught me how to leave somebody
and it’s hard to do
you said keep my sh-t together when the world unravels
oh-oh-oh
and put a brave face on in the heat of the battle
so that’s what i did

[chorus]
when you said, “navigate with your heart
even if it’s gonna lead you down to head rock bottom
go and pick up your head
even if the higher ground is the place you’ve forgotten
may your actions speak louder than words
give them h-ll as hard as it hurts”
’cause that’s what i learned from you
so take it from me
practice what you preach

[verse 3]
the greatest pretends
how they forget to remember
who they are fooling
oh, who they are in the first place
don’t shy away from the mirror
don’t complicate it, it couldn’t be clearer
just burn that disguise
‘cause i see you, i see me, i see us
i see all the years looking at you
all the years that you lost but you never found
i see fear looking dead at you
so give ‘em h-ll at heaven’s gate

[chorus]
when you said, “navigate with your heart
even if it’s gonna lead you down to head rock bottom
go and pick up your head
even if the higher ground is the place you’ve forgotten
may your actions speak louder than words
give them h-ll as hard as it hurts”
’cause that’s what i learned from you
so take it from me
practice what you preach

[bridge]
i see a little kid crying in you
i see a little kid dressed in their sunday best
well, i’m a little kid crying at you
don’t you see me now? don’t you hear me now? oh
wherever you lead, i will follow
yesterday, today, and tomorrow
you’re spinning all around out there
all alone out there
but your home’s right here, yeah

[chorus]
when you said, “navigate with your heart
even if it’s gonna lead you down to head rock bottom (whoa-oh-oh-oh)
go and pick up your head
even if the higher ground is the place you’ve forgotten (it’s the place you’ve forgotten)
may your actions speak louder than words (louder than words)
give them h-ll as hard as it hurts” (as hard as it hurts)
’cause that’s what i learned from you
so take it from me
practice what you preach

[outro]
oh-oh-oh-oh
practice what you preach
oh-oh-oh-oh
