speak up

some days i find it hard to breathe

it's like the walls are closing in on me

some days

i feel all alone

it's like i'm knocking on the door but no one's home

it starts with a silence

but i hear it's screaming loud

let go of the fear that is holding us down

it starts with a whisper

but it turns into a wall

my heart stops to listen when my voice starts to soul

i speak up

no longer hiding in the shadows

i speak up

i am perfect from my head down to my toes

no one can knock me down

i stand and face the crowd

when i speak up!

i'm not alone anymore

i was always so quiet

it used to be so easy to ignore

you said that i am worth it

find a girl within your soul worth fighting for

it starts with a silence

but i hear it's screaming loud

let go of the fear that is holding us down

it starts with a whisper

but it turns into a wall

my heart stops to listen when my voice starts to soul

i speak up

no longer hiding in the shadows

i speak up

i am perfect from my head down to my toes

no one can knock me down

i stand and face the crowd

when i speak up!

i'm not alone anymore

silence had a hold

had a hold on me

but i'm not who i used to be

'cause even in my doubts i still believe

fear won't take this voice from me

oh

fear won't take this voice from me

oh!

i speak up. i speak up

no longer hiding in the shadows

i speak up

i am perfect from my head down to my toes

no one can knock me down

i stand and face the crowd

when i speak up!
