"This song has a couple of different aspects, a personal meaning and a broader meaning. I hear so many fictitious stories about myself
it's actually funny. My friends tell me about these elaborately, detailed rumors they hear being passed around all the time. It amazes me that someone took the time and energy to fabricate these things and people even care
to talk about it. On the personal side it's kind of a rebuttal to all the rumors about me, but in the universal sense, I think everyone has had untruths said about them at one time or another. So, although it may be human nature to want to believe and spread juicy little gossip,
(I've done it too,) you can't believe it until you see it."

Rumor In My Town
This song is dedicated to all of the masses
Who can't wait to hear or say something that harasses
I can't believe that you be spitting that
I should be hitting back
But I'm a show you now what class is
Elaboration on a subject that you don't know
And all the fiction of your fairy tales gotta go
I'm coming at you in your stereo
Just so you know, so drop the show
CHORUS:
There's a rumor in my town that's going around
There's a rumor in my town unfounded with no grounds
There's a rumor in my town I won't let it bring me down
There are rumors, rumors.
It's seems that you've mistaken kindness here for weakness
Maybe to you humility appeases meekness
'Cause I don't hit on every girl I could
Challenge my manhood
Now it's time for me to speak this
Your mouth is full but the rest of you is empty
But I believe that you will get yours on another day
But I'm a keep on living life this way
Say what you wanna say
Take your lies and play.
CHORUS
He said, she said, he did, she did
It's easy to believe
But don't be so quick to spread all these things
Believe it when you see it.
INSTRUMENTAL
CHORUS
