chantae cann - the sound lyrics
“the sound”
verse i:
saw a man lying on the ground
we were too loud to even hear the sound
2 gunshots took away his chance to see another day
they say it was a senseless crime
but did he really have to loose his life
once again violence has had its way
in a world where this is all too common
do we pretend like it just doesn’t happen
we’ve gotta raise our voices and speak out loud
and we come together they will hear the sound
chorus:
(and) this is how the sound works
this is how the sound works
verse ii:
heard about a girl today
taken from her family and then sold for pay
her innocent blue skies were turned to grey,
but would we even know her name
fought for her life and finally broke free
nevertheless she could be you or me
how do we end such proclivity
cuz in a heartless world, we’re all the same
in a world where this is all too common
do we pretend like it just doesn’t happen
we’ve gotta raise our voices and speak out about it
and we come together they will hear the sound
division causes us to go round & round
but when we come together they will hear the sound
chorus:
this is how the sound works
this is how the sound works
this is how the sound works
this is how the sound works
division causes us to go round & round
but when we come together they will hear the sound
vamp:
we’ve gotta raise our voices & sing out loud
we’ve gotta raise our voices & sing out loud
