MY NAME IS MIDNIGHT

Written by HastyDad (Howie) and HastyWords   I was the first silence you heard I held you tight inside my beat Vibrations you could only feel Then as you developed and grew My silence was audible to you A sound growing louder with time You see, man uses this beat to dance Notes felt way…
