The Movement - Loud Enough
Tell me are the speakers loud enough
Can you feel the baseline thumping is it tough enough
To tell me are my people loud enough
Making love enough
Tell me cause I need to know before I go
I don't have much time to sit and relax while we all unwind
To just **** and pay tax while we all run blind
I hear em scream weu0027ve had enough
But they bluff and talk a good game
The next day come and they still the same
Itu0027s like they donu0027t even understand what Iu0027m sayin
Tell me are the speakers loud enough
Can you hear my voice cutting through the crowd enough
Can you feel the baseline thumping is it tough enough
To break the silence and turn it into love
Now tell me are my people loud enough
Is there any hope that we make them proud enough
To live a life of purpose and know that we can love enough
To get going when the going gets rough
Tell me cause I need to know before I go
I don't have much time to sit and relax while we all unwind
To just **** and pay tax while we all run blind
Look where it's heading
The people scream but we're getting nowhere
We're aiding, abetting the politicians' system
Cover the constitution
We're sleeping
We're letting them get away with the steady manipulation of policy
Look at the petty, ****ty example we're setting
While we party confetti falls on the unheard innocent,
The sick, and the sweating but the profits we're netting
Convinces all that we're ready to just turn it down, shut it off.
Tell me are the speakers loud enough
Can you hear my voice cutting through the crowd enough
Can you feel the baseline thumping is it tough enough
To break the silence and turn it into love
Now tell me are my people loud enough
Is there any hope that we make them proud enough
To live a life of purpose and know that we can love enough
To get going when the going gets rough
