about

This track is about people finding their voice, the one that they have inside of them, and releasing it into the air to speak out against anything that comes against them, their family, their people, or their generation. Its a universal call to open your mouth and release the words that need to be said, and not be ashamed of it. Inspired by the awesome original, Read all about it part 3 by Emeli Sande.

lyrics

We all have a voice that’s deep inside us
It not only speaks, but it also guides us (2)
And yet we’re ashamed, so we keep it hidden
As if there was a law that truth is forbidden (4)
Well Extra, Extra, Read all about it
I’ve been silent long enough, but now its (6)
Time to start using that tool that many
Of us can make the world better if we had plenty (8)
Words, nations, different conversations
Declarations sprung from every generation (10)
The young and the old come together as one
To speak out against immorality and corruption (12)
We’re only victims of what we put with
So lets not go and plead the fifth (14)
But be first in the door and the last ones out
Open the mouth of our hearts, let it scream and shout (16)
(chorus)
I’m not ashamed to use my voice for a reason
But like everything, there is a season (2)
A time to be born and a time to die
A time to fall down and a time to fly (4)
A time to weep and a time to laugh,
A time to mourn and a time to dance (6)
So use it wisely, cause it wont last
Every second that is lost is trapped in the past (8)
Now is our turn to make a difference
To make a real change and refrain from ignorance (10)
They all want us to remain a fool
And act like we never ever graduated from preschool (12)
Don’t be afraid to express your mind
It don’t matter if they criticize (14)
Let em love me or go on a hating spree
But they cannot stop the voice that I have in me(16)
