Listen to what i have to say
Lots of things i wanted to say
taught to be quiet and pray
open ears to anyone in need
patiently waiting my turn to speak
the wait never ends, ignored again
ask permission to have an opinion
so I ask, may I speak ?
Don't speak until spoken too
my words never get through to you
my voice is a scorched pop-up ad
trying to climb over your firewall
Until broken down to a shaky crawl
from now on ill wait until i'm called on
