They Don't Hear Me
(Verse 1)
If I convert a soul with a verse
Maybe then I'll skip church
Not sure how that works
I flirt with danger
Never been a stranger to these streets
I seen it all
A gun blast somebody falls
And the shooter takes his Jesus piece
Deceased souls left froze from rigamortis
When they find him in the morning
No one's morning
No one's notified
Just another homicide
No witness
So no one testifies
So to the k**er
No need to hide
To no surprise
Drugs implied
See if the victims vilified
Then it's justified
(Chorus)
I tell a story that's never told
Another page in a book where no one goes
Some never read so they never know
Where, where the truth lies
The truth lies
No one knows
They all, they all
They all, they all don't hear me
They all, they all
They all, they all don't hear me
They all, they all
They all, they all don't hear me
(Verse 2)
The power
The presence
The essence of God in men
So Godly men defend their sins
Cause they feel their chosen
So now they posing in robes
And j**els seems cruel
To be fooled by the faithful ones
I pay taxes before I pay tides
So why the pastor get another free ride
Watch his eyes, caught him checking out somebody's wife
And he just smiled, like this the life
I watch him close never turn
Cause I'm waiting for that knife
He tried to catch me off guard
Try to give me advice
Then compliments to the Mrs
You looking right!!
(Chorus)
I tell a story that's never told
Another page in a book where no one goes
Some never read so they never know
Where, where the truth lies
The truth lies
No one knows
They all, they all
They all, they all don't hear me
They all, they all
They all, they all don't hear me
They all, they all
They all, they all don't hear me
(Verse 3)
False ideals misguide the youth
Feel entitled so they hide the truth
So if the problem seems alarming
Then they pressing snooze
No regulations
So no one's ever breaking rules
Just some bankers in a back room
Ain't it obvious exactly why they hire these lobbyist
They in for the politics
See politicians convince us
We must trust them
So even when they fail
Then we have nothing
Just the talk of tarp money and some bank bailouts
To big to fail so the small ones sellout
Now shell out our taxes to the banks with bad books
But they will never blame all the banks that had crooks
They talk of Madoff
And I can't even take another day off
Another layoff
Some get a degree hope and plead
That it pays off
I stay off
They radar
Like yea see you later
(Chorus)
I tell a story that's never told
Another page in a book where no one goes
Some never read so they never know
Where, where the truth lies
The truth lies
No one knows
They all, they all
They all, they all don't hear me
They all, they all
They all, they all don't hear me
They all, they all
They all, they all don't hear me
They all, they all don't hear me
They all, they all
They all, they all
