[Theme: I go looking for the person who refused him and find a building instead] [SONG FORM: hook first and cold, two uneven verses, shouted call-and-answer breakdown, dry aside, doubled hook] [Hook 1 - female low, barked and melodic] Say it with your mouth! Say it in your voice! Nobody signed it. Nobody will. Come and get your silence. [Verse 1 - female low, conversational rap behind the beat] Got a letter with a logo where a name should be. Very polite. Very sorry. Very nobody. Somebody typed it, somebody sent it, Somebody's hand was on the key — But you go looking for the mouth that said it And the whole building shrugs at me. Fourteen desks and not one throat. A hallway full of not-my-call. A no with no one standing under it, Just a signature-shaped hole in the wall. Oh, that's clever. That's beautiful. Somebody got promoted for that. [Hook 2 - female low, barked and melodic] Say it with your mouth! Say it in your voice! Nobody signed it. Nobody will. Come and get your silence. [Verse 2 - female low, aggressive rap, tighter double-time phrasing] I'm not coming to you, send somebody up, Badge on the desk and a story made up. Bring that paper, bring that polished excuse, Bring one living name I can tie to the truth. You pass me around like a problem on fire, Every calm little answer climbs higher and higher. No face, no fault, no hand on the pen, Just a room full of doors and the same dead end. I read every comma, I counted each clause, Found a thousand ways to hide behind laws. You want quiet? Then stand in the sound, You want me gone? Put your name on the ground. I came for a sentence, you gave me a maze, Now I'm cutting through the middle and setting the pace. No more neat little boxes, no more nodding along, If nobody owns it, then nobody's wrong? Wrong. Say it with your mouth. Say it in your voice. I'm still here. Make the choice. [Hook 3 - female low, barked and melodic] Say it with your mouth! Say it in your voice! Nobody signed it. Nobody will. Come and get your silence. [Breakdown - female call with massed shouted answer] Who said it? Nobody! Who signed it? Nobody! Who's gonna look him in the eye? Nobody! Then I guess it's mine. I'll take the floor. Turn it up. I'll do it myself. [Aside - female low, dry and unhurried] Bring a chair. Bring nothing else. The loud part's already paid for. [Hook 4 - female low, doubled and wide] Say it with your mouth! Say it in your voice! Nobody signed it. Nobody will. Come and get your silence. [Coda - female low, warm and close] Pick the next one. Pick it loud. I'll run it till the windows go. You never owed them a thing — So tell me what you wanna hear.
