Poetra Asantewa - Naked Listeners lyrics
They only hear you when you speaking lewd They only hear you when you show them nudes They never wanna hear you when it's about the people Never wanna hear you when it's about the country Never wanna hear you Never wanna hear you (2x) I swear I have no panties on! Standing on the podium preaching about unification Talking about how the ma**es have been destabilized And how we need to quarantine the brilliant to enforce a revolution And somehow, nobody hears a thing But let me say that I swear I have no panties on And suddenly, I have your attention I was born in a generation where many of us live in a nonchalant mode Living life in the go-slow speed section Because we consider our personal freedom as untouchable entities The average boy is walking in his peers shadow Waiting for an opportunity to say, “Man, that's dope!” The average girl is wondering how cute she looks In her tall boyfriend's white tees And the youth don't care about ma** unemployment Or cares to know what GDP stands for Because he's driving in a car mother got him And he's mooching off father's hard earned sweat And he says he likes his women intelligent But befuddle his mind and he'll tell you “Mami, I just want to see some a**” – that's what he's here for And she wants a smart boy But not for what she can learn from him Only for the wealth he can create – man's favourite pet And you want to just crash their heads together And subject them to their inner feelings Cause them to feel inside the structure Of their paralyzed thoughts To question the identification details of their minds; Are they citizens of their own freaking minds? Not hanging by society's puppet strings Being actively enslaved by a system under the guise of education? Not fueling a system that has no hope of reaping benefits? And living their life such that society has to live up to their standard? Silence Nobody hears a thing Nobody speaks a word I said I had no panties on And everybody found their voice They only hear you when you speaking lewd They only hear you when you show them nudes They never wanna hear you when it's about the people Never wanna hear you when it's about the country Never wanna hear you Never wanna hear you (2x)
