the sound of silence
"the sound of silence every time i look around there's violence .
you got snake venom on your eye lids it's the reason your blinded."
take off the mask and lets see whats behind it ,is it the pain or the sound of
silence. you got military captains saying fix your face. you got your mama ,and
your daddy saying stay in your place. police got a gun pointed at your waste
if you move or hesitate you will be blown in space and have no place.
wondering when the good lord will help you escape
but when you get there you will have to face.
friends think there cannibals but they ain't even animals when
something happen to you then there accountable . I had door shut in my
face but it ain't shuting no more because i found my happy place better
than the one before,and if you still talking trash i'll keep blinding my
bricks while you are on the other side still fixing your sticks and that's
what i call the sound of silence.
