TO scream THROUGH THE HEADPHONES
I know how you are
Today you block out the world
With your phones
And your tech
And your blarring headphones.
Now this my be irony
Or maybe it's just truth
How I wish to break you and stake you
To the ground with rough iron
Rip the headphones from your head
And scream so loud that the dead
Will shutter in their graves.
You have ignored me
And implored me
To hold my tongue and be quiet
But as a man once said
Sometimes quiet is violent
And to be silenced and downcast
Fuels me to Speak
To show you I'm over-worthy
And that I never was weak
You're headphones are off
Now hear me ROAR
Because I won't be the victim
YOU clean MY floor.
You knew one day you'd hear me
So you took advantage while you could.
Now here's come the day,
When you stand where I stood.
