VERSE The beat goes on and on and on, on the drum They act like they're in the ghetto, from the slum They don't want to talk to resolve their problems, they just wanna act dumb No need to be sad, music can make you be not glum We need a little music and conversation, it's time to get some They don't talk so they just succumb They don't want to communicate, they don't want to talk They act just like depressed kids, sitting on the sidewalk We need full conversations, not just smalltalk When the thought of resolving a confusion comes in their mind, they just balk They don't want to talk, lost in the abyss of the night They're stagnant and complacent, they don't want to fight Don't need no malice, don't need no spite Things are not good, they are not alright Communication is the proper, way of resolving ones plight It's important to communicate, with all your might Things are not good, they are not alright They're stagnant and complacent, they don't want to fight If you start to communicate, your words will become great dynamite CHORUS The truth, is something that has been for too long suppressed Protesting your problems will make you best They need to communicate their mind, say everything that has been repressed They don't oppose this nightmare, they don't protest You're unstoppable, won't be no arrest I'm too overwhelmed, I'm too stressed They don't want to communicate, they don't want to talk When the thought of resolving a confusion comes in their mind, they just balk We need full conversations, not just smalltalk They act just like depressed kids, sitting on the sidewalk They don't oppose this hell, they don't protest Bring forth that vigor, bring forth that zest There are far, far too many things, left unaddressed I'm too overwhelmed, I'm too stressed We need to fight, in order to get rest The truth, is something that has been for too long suppressed VERSE They do not talk to resolve their problems, they don't communicate They don't protest their problems, maybe they should retaliate They should share their ideas, they should not hide them and segregate Inert science they consecrate Whining and bickering with no communication, is what we should eliminate It's a sad picture, with a sad walk We need full conversations, not just smalltalk They don't want to communicate, they don't want to talk When the thought of resolving a confusion comes in their mind, they just balk If you don't communicate to resolve your issues, what a mess you will become We shall prevail, we shall overcome Change will come soon, it will come It's not about the money, it ain't about the sum They don't wanna talk to resolve their issues, they just wanna act dumb No need to be depressed, music can make you be not glum The beat goes on and on and on, on the drum Change will come soon, it will come They don't want to talk to resolve their problems, they just wanna act dumb We shall prevail, we shall overcome It don't matter at all, about politics or income CHORUS The truth, is something that has been for too long suppressed Protesting your problems will make you best They need to communicate their mind, say everything that has been repressed They don't oppose this nightmare, they don't protest You're unstoppable, won't be no arrest I'm too overwhelmed, I'm too stressed They don't want to communicate, they don't want to talk When the thought of resolving a confusion comes in their mind, they just balk We need full conversations, not just smalltalk They act just like depressed kids, sitting on the sidewalk They don't oppose this hell, they don't protest Bring forth that vigor, bring forth that zest There are far, far too many things, left unaddressed I'm too overwhelmed, I'm too stressed We need to fight, in order to get rest The truth, is something that has been for too long suppressed VERSE It's time to rap and sing, it's time to hum They don't care about people's pain, they act numb They don't want to communicate to resolve their problems, they just wanna act dumb We shall prevail, we shall overcome No need to be depressed, music can make you be not glum Bring forth the vigor, make the night alight If you communicate, the future will look rather bright Things are not good, they are not alright They're stagnant and complacent, they don't want to fight They act like they're in the ghetto, from the slum They don't want to talk to resolve their problems, they just wanna act dumb It's not about the money, it ain't about the sum If you don't talk to resolve your plight, what a mess you will become If you start to communicate, your words will become great dynamite Things are not good, they are not right Bring forth the energy, make the night alight They're stagnant and complacent, they don't want to fight Things are not good, they are not alright CHORUS The truth, is something that has been for too long suppressed Protesting your problems will make you best They need to communicate their mind, say everything that has been repressed They don't oppose this nightmare, they don't protest You're unstoppable, won't be no arrest I'm too overwhelmed, I'm too stressed They don't want to communicate,
