[Verse 1: U.G]
Silence is golden, while green is chosen to be smoked
The envy of the broke, getting provoked to choke on dope
I wrote this making notions knowing I would be revoking
A plush life While I'm striving to fight this virus they call oppression
The message I'm stressing is more important than religion
If these people would even listen, that we living as the victims
In this system which cripples, now listen to the General's dictum
Spreading freedom with the Loaf, while we feeding the mouths
Who don't have a voice, yet we have the freedom to speak aloud?
Knowledge and power, we proud cos' it's ours
But the power corrupts the knowledge until it's devoured
Trying to gain some inspiration so that I can train this nation
Into forgetting segregation and remembering amalgamation
While they debating your crimes, which don't even sound right
So when we in sight, join us to fight for our rights
Because this bullsh** is ending so raise your voices tonight!
R-r-raise your voices tonight!
Raise your voices tonight!
Now raise your voices tonight!
[Hook (x2)]
Time raise the silence and end the violence
The people will rise and take down the tyrants
Raise the silence, and end the violence
The people will rise, including the silence
[Verse 2: Sloo]
Feelin creepy like when the door hinge creeks
Genius with the raps, should start writing orange ink
Surfin' the channel is orange, ocean be frank on the chorus
So we get chords, spit from the core and record it
Confident that inspiration will take hold with all of this
You'd wanna be a part of this, because a part meant
A chance at homes in an apartment
Reachin' up to the stars to get it started
We tryna achieve the feat of ending up on repeat
On your playlist, whether you bought it or copped the leak
The loaf is about pushing truth and knowledge
Expressed in peace happily, no matter the package of the product
Take the beat and put my version of the verse in
Once there's nothing in the purse, poverty's starts dispersing
How we suppose to fly like a bird, if we burdened
We're emergin' as a crew you wanna merge with
LOAF!
This is Since Sliced Bread
We're not being quiet anymore
We've waited far too long
It's About Time, we share our voices
[Hook (x2)]

[Verse 3: Hesan]
I'm packing big lyrics, yo, I'm rapping to get rich
So I have cash to give to South African kids
Its happening quick, tired of the sadness within
The minds of the deprived, we got a battle to win
I'm tryna saddle us in, a magical friend: music
The tides coming in but we riding into it
Tryna get fluent in the ruins of a mindless delusion
A 'crime' of improvement is exactly what the lies have been doing
So I'll give you the truth, cos' other cannot perform it
Cos' I'm the hottest in the universe, Canis Majoris
And the crew that I'm rolling with is madly enormous
You better forfeit, cos' you money and hoes are not important
Your vision is distorted by this new world era
The error is living in money driven en devours
True happiness is better than the colder pleasures
Of golden treasures, we're living in a broken leisure
Of global pressure to improve the youth of today
So get behind the movement and salute to the name
I load a gun of knowledge, so let me shoot at your brain
It's brutally plain, we making a solution that stains
[Hook (x2)]
