"Don’t Hold Back (Wanting More)"
You speak and I hear
(Blah Blah Blahbedy Blah Blah)
You speak and I sneer
(Ha Ha Haha Ha Ha Ha)
Utter something of importance
Talk is cheap but keep it short and
Don’t hold back what you have in store
Don’t leave me wanting more
Eminence is in the blood
Trying to hide from a shove
Too bad it happened
And you can’t back away and pretend
That you meant to do something like you did
But it’s only hurting yourself to speak the way you did
Putting love on a pedestal
Thinking it’s beneficial
I sit and laugh as you try and fill the gaps
You stutter, you mutter, and claim it was a lapse
“It’s all happening oh so fast”
Too bad I don’t care about that
Your words have no significance
Your words show no adamance
Red in my eyes from listening
Wishing for the time you’d be finishing
I don’t tell you to shut up
Because I want you to listen
When I am opening up
Or when I have the floor and preachin’
Just some simple respect I show
Just to get you to know
That I’ll be there to take in
Whatever you have to offer, I’ll listen
But damn I don’t need (to hear all of this)
You’ll go on all day makin’ my ears bleed
Useless facts you seem to feed me
When will it be my time to speak my mind?
Tell me something
But you tell me nothing
Tell me something
That’s it, I’m walking
Out on this pathetic
Excuse for a conversation
Sorry to be apathetic
But this is my observation
You speak to hear your voice
Acting like I don’t have a choice
To walk out, interrupt or cuss
At you for makin’ me sit through this
You’re boring unless you have memories
Worth articulating words about
Cause from this point in history
I’m judging you from the words you never chose
To speak, to lack a personality, ya shoulda spoke
Your conversing license has just been revoked
