Just words
I’m not quiet to avoid being a target
Think listen
Ring
What do I have to say to your conscious
No just listen
Ring
Is it so strange not to gossip
I think I can go years without being
Obnoxious it’s a complicated word
Although simple the meaning
Might just sound absurd
To the uneducated people
Talking in the back
Is it my goal to be extravagantly wack
Unlike you I have a life owed to books
I don’t choose to waste it on the contagious terminal
Blight of voices rotating from the back
Now rotate to the future
I’m loud at my seminars
Multi million dollar business
And no back talk to drown it all
I admit I’m a target of successful deals
Not dealers don’t be mistaken by your backwards ideals
Think listen
Yes you could have been there as a black woman up top
Listen
Soon the whole earth will hail upon graces without much shock
