HOOK
What is the sound of silence what is the point in violence/ what is this new alliance what is this self appliance/ what is communication how do we free this nation/ save it from our generation come to a comtemplation// Sound of silence after rain point in violence mad pain/ new alliance changed name self appliance mad gain/ communication two way street in where words act as feet/ save our nation must compete with generations of yesterweek// 2X
Past, present, future, beginning, middle and end/ no one controls the world time will never stop mend/ the broken puzzle the pieces won't put together itself/ its time consuming but the pictures worth it// take time enough to work it/ I gotta free up some tick marks half past dark won't get me to the light/ to fight another day until night falls battlin/ scrappin and clawin and cryin its easy to die when// to face the faceless race erase the rates/ a race against money is just a no win/ when you abuse money they'll take away Ben/ jammin you at the line like you were a tight end// then you'll see friends you thought were tight when/ way back but now you are cut like split ends/ cuz you don't have the chesse to go and split when/ to mouse trap people that's not my mission//
So now we got that foundation the dynasty we makin/ make sure the crew is productive so no one else can take it/ sometimes I just can't take it the thought of me not makin/ it makes me sick from the head to the tip// of my toes and now I knows and beginning to realize/ no one really cares if you are playin the nice guy/ replies by stupid people who act wise/ I despise like deperate dummies on housewives// because they try to control down to the way you breath/ but they can't control the the time that body leaves/ from the earths surface unto the afterlife that doesn't get determined by neither you or I// while ambitious ones try determined to pass you by/ any means necessary then they up and die/ that's why I live life walkin my own line/ my own path hopefully I will remain fine//
