I've been speaking, just a whisper in the wind,
Every word I say gets lost, and it never sinks in.
A spark in the room, but I'm standing firm,
Oh the silence it keeps me from being heard
I've got a fire inside, but they don't want to know
A voice that's drowning, a voice that's low
This time, I won't let it fade away,
I'll break the silence, no matter what they say.
Shout it out, let the whole world hear,
Every word, every cry, every single tear.
I won't back down, I'm done being small,
Shout it out, 'cause I want to be tall.
You tell me to wait, to bide my time,
But I've been patient, now I'm drawing the line.
I won't be a shadow, fading in the dark,
I'll rise like thunder, leave a blazing mark.
They can try to hush me, but I won't go quiet,
This heart's a rebel, it's starting a riot.
This is my moment, I'm taking the lead,
A voice unleashed is all I need.
Shout it out, let the whole world hear,
Every word, every cry, every single tear.
I won't back down, I'm done being small,
Shout it out, 'cause I want to be tall.
Now hear me shout,
Shout it out, let the whole world hear,
Every word, every cry, every single tear.
I won't back down, I'm done being small,
Shout it out, 'cause I want to be tall.
I'm shouting it out, no more holding back,
I've found my voice, I'm on the attack.
The world will know, there's no stopping me,
I'm shouting it out, finally free.
