Silenced
Silenced
In this world there are people who say too much
And
There are people who never listen such is such
In this world there are people who say little but listen a lot
And
There are people who listen but can’t describe just what they have got
In this world there are people who try to make the best of not a happy lot
And
There are people who never think so much is the opposite of not
In this world there are people who are disillusioned with the turmoil of the plot
And
There are people who never think of the consequences of why the way things are just add to the deficit like rot
In this world there are people who think there are no reasons for why this earth can’t be bought
And
There are people who have no concept or understanding of why what is worth is worse as you or I cannot
In this world there is going to come a time when freedom is no consequence and the lives of people will be forgotten when tears will not stop
And
There are people who live in this country will find there is no shelter for the poor and sick and we will say we are dying and starving but the words will come too late as there is nobody listening to the plight of the silent majority silenced forgot.
