I got a message
I fear if I lift my voice
And speak it. To the world
It will fall on deaf ears
I want my message to spread like a wildfire
But it feels more like a unlit match
Nowadays it's more about clout
Too caught up in
Who the messenger is
Instead of what the message is about
I scream and shout
Lose my voice in the process
Nobody pays Garrick no mind
It's fine ....
I don't need to be adored
I'm use to getting ignored
Don't need you to hold the door
I'll get to it myself ...
"Too caught up in / Who the messenger is / Instead of what the message is about" ... so true, and so unfortunate! But please do continue to speak your message anyway, you never know... a few sets of ears out there might not be entirely closed, and it may come to someone right when they need it most...
