Two years and extra days, a block away he'd head to hang

Same corncer, neighborhood, his friends, the gang

Two years and extra days, a bigger kid would black his eye

No real reason, explanation and everyday no one knew why



The bigger kid was crazy, that made the gang afraid

When he told the gang to shut their mouths the gang obeyed

You've got to have a place to be, you need a place to hang around

So no one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound



CHORUS

Both his eyes would twitch

The left one was always black

His lips they never moved

They stayed still with each attack

His ears were always rngining

In his head he'd hear a hum

And all the kids on the corner

Knew what it was from



Then one day it happened, he tooks his daily crack

His eyes rolled up, llike yesterday, he started falling back

The kids that watch this everyday now watched him hit the ground

And no one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound

Amd no one made a sound



CHORUS



No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound

A sad silent situation, now he's not around
