[Intro – Soft, hollow synths & distant wind] Shhh... Can you hear it? ("It goes on and on…") [Verse 1 – Gentle, aching delivery] They sit in silence, caged in fear, Their stories lost, but I still hear— The mother weeping for her child, The youth in chains, the trial defiled. They built their power on broken backs, Stamped out the truth, rewrote the facts. But pain don’t vanish when the gavel drops— It echoes through the rooftops. [Pre-Chorus] They say "justice is blind"— But she looks away when we're dying. And while the world keeps turning, The echoes keep crying… [Chorus – Haunting, rising intensity] I hear the echo like a siren’s song— It goes on and on… it goes on and on. Through courtrooms cold and midnight halls, Through shattered homes and prison walls. I hear the echo—it’s calling me, From the ones they buried quietly. I can’t forget. I won’t move on. 'Cause the echo still sings, And it goes on and on... [Verse 2 – More intense, rhythmic delivery] You pass your laws like holy lines, But sin still lives between the fines. They bought the judge, they rigged the game— Then blamed the poor and praised the shame. A thousand names, a thousand wrongs, The cries you mute become our song. You can steal the voice—but not the sound— 'Cause echoes rise from underground. [Bridge – Spoken/sung, eerie atmosphere] You lock them up… But can you lock the truth? You hide the files… But not the proof. You silence mouths… But can’t stop ghosts— And echoes haunt what matters most. [Chorus – Full force, emotionally raw] I hear the echo like a siren’s song— It goes on and on… it goes on and on. No gavel loud enough to drown The voices rising from this ground. I hear the echo—it’s justice near, Carved from every silenced tear. I can’t forget. I won’t move on. 'Cause the echo still sings, And it goes on and on... [Outro – Minimal, whispered harmony over reverb] So if you’re crying in the dark… I hear you. I hear you. Your echo’s not gone. It goes on and on...
