Loud

Thunderous, roaring, booming, deafening A hit so good got 'em begging Begging for more, just pulling 'em in with magnetism Hitting so LOUD causing astigmatism Now, vision for the future is disrupted and obstructed Drifting away from the blueprints of the ancestors that still have not been constructed Cacophonous, blasting, ringing, piercing A hit so good got 'em fading Fading to an indolent and shiftless place Far away from peace to shame and disgrace Now sloth and aimlessness fill the day No aim, no energy, 'cause LOUD got 'em quietly fading away Yep! LOUD got 'em munchin' and cravin' a snack Nutritionally destitute, wholesome sustenance they lack LOUD getting louder; now they're really quiet Indoors asleep when they should beout in a riot LOUD just sippin' and sappin' that drive Giving 'em allusions of feeling good and being alive A political sedative, to say the least LOUD has gotten louder while slowly silencing the beast
