Just Listen Will Ya
just listen will ya?
listen to what im sayin
ill tell it to you like it is
im not going to lie
im going to be truthful
get it all out
on the table
wear my heart on my sleeve
surrender to the higher power
and throw myself on the mercy
of the people
am i insane?
that could get me tortured to death
maybe, but it could also
earn you a place in history
showing how this system
completely unnnecessarily
destroyed a man
who could save the world.
