Have you ever been told what you should believe?
Or, if the words of such a person are meant to deceive.
Do you know someone who uses his mouth to preach
but doesn't live by his words. They're a figment of speech.
I have been told that peace is that person's ultimate goal
But I'm not sold on his act if he's merely playing a role.
If he doesn't live by the same standards of his word,
his lips aren't conveying anything that should be heard.
