People Never Heard


This is for the people who are never heard.
It's a voice for the voiceless,
a toast for the toastless
smoke for the smokeless
for those on the train
but are coachless
for those who do the farming
but are foodless
we this .. believe this.

This is for the people who are never heard
We've got so much more to say
and no one gets to hear
tip toein through this life drivin by fear
This is for the people who are never heard

This is for those with chains on their feet
we scared to move we scared of defeat
this is for those who go non stop nuturing
their children, harassed by the cops
it's like fuck the many and serve the few
in this world of vertical madness what are we to do?
Is there time served for the people never heard
remembering the coming years like they're already gone
when desperation conquers reason it's a treason to behold
on ourself without knowing, we're filling a mold
contemplating survival something so old.

This is for the people who are never heard.
We're everything we'll never be
stifled from our true potential,
we could be so much more
but this fear culture reigns on us
and it ain't accidental.
We scared of each other,
steady keeping us from our basic essentials
but if i am you and you are me
and we share knowledge to becoming we,
pulling strength from one another
than we wouldnt need managers or masters,
these fuckers sucking on us like cancers
we are never heard, cause they never asked us
they wouldn't like the answer
it's a hush hush, been silenced for years
we ain't livin through our fears so fuck your careers

This is for the people who are never heard
We've got so much more to say
and no one gets to hear
tip toein through this life drivin by fear
This is for the people who are never heard

Making me feel funny like a bad remix
and these tricks are for kids
this is my bid for another society
Living horizantly, what it be, wanna be
constantly thinking how we can do better
cause we all have ideas on how shit can work
better. together.
but it's like a lost love letter
so much good intention
but it's never delivered
a misconnection,options never considered
so i'm saying it now cause a
broken people we can't be

This is for the people who are never heard.
