Hear Him Out

People
Everywhere that you see
will not stop and stare
and listen to what's in your heart
the notes you sing
they turn around
towards the crowd
whispers
saying that you think you know
what you're doing, but they are wrong
you're just proving that you express yourself in a different way

all he wants is for you to
hear him out
just listen
the words may seem loud
but its not noise
its a beautiful melody
just listen and hear him sing
his soul speaks louder and they are all wrong
to judge you and put you down
put you down

all them ladies
turning you down and acting shady
all them ladies
all they want is a little bump and grind
they don't know what is on your mind
you want so much more
you want a lady to be a lady, have your babies
but they just dont know

chorus

hear him out ( repeat 8 times)

all them fellas
hating cuz they jealouse
cuz they wish cuz
they don't have your voice
so much hating on a boy whose love is fading
any all they can do is shoot some hoops
but guess what
theres much more in the hood than b-ball
they don't know other things that they cna do
achieveing things they can do

chorus

hear him out ( repeat 8 times)

{vocals}

and all he wants is to 
be accepted
he has no clue
how much soul he has ( hold)

[ over laps with the chorus and vocals]

People
Everywhere that you see
will not stop and stare
and listen to what's in your heart
the notes you sing
they turn around
they turn and face you
whispers
that boy can sing
like an angel
he must have wings
