A Reason To Doubt It

Words spoken aloud doesn't constitute voice

Can't force that it's heard, to listens a choice

Whether screamed or whispered no volumes needed to hear

Simply amplifying each word won't obligate one to care

 

Voices carry a message words alone are too weak

Theres talking out loud then theres chosing to speak

Having something to offer must be desired

For one to deserve the attention required

 

Is it done to inspire or to satisfy pride

To speak or to listen all arefree to decide

Having freedom is great theres no better way

But it should only be practiced by those with somthing to say

 

Voices are vehicles with missions at hand

To expand some knowledge over the promise land

Driving this vehicle comes at a cost

To continue the journey no matter whats lost

 

Our greatest defense, never let down your gaurd

Sorting message & noise can prove to be hard

A message is only such as long as it remains the same

The rules still apply no matter the game

Since noise has its rights theres no option without it

So take all you hear with a reason to doubt it
