Tony Vincent SONG

hiding tears
far beyond your years
try to take a stand
holding all command
empty Souls
remain in control
outward beauty here
still it’s all you know
market deals
losing their appeal
now your pallet’s changed
look for other meals
production snort
take it all to court
wanting victory
but you come up short
responsibility is not a word
you want to hear or read
when will priorities change

associations, proclamations,
giving ways to rule the nations
but while convincing and evincing
we’re leaving out the one we’ve been missing

Chorus:
you’re always talking loudly
you’re only talking to yourself
you look inside for answers
when they’ll be found in someone else
do you hear what I’m speaking
or am i talking to myself
i never caught the vision
until i looked high

tradition’s views
causing you to loose
in the other ones
still you’ve one to choose
the time is hear
for a tried career
invest in truth
while the picture’s clear
what is the plan, stan, to make a boy into a man
when will our attitudes change-change

this universal, controversial,
message plays a fine rehearsal
but we invent a monument
instead of showing what He meant

CHORUS
