My Voice
" My Voice"
(Verse 1)
Does it carry
Have I spoke?
A load taken off
That you didn't tote
Listen to me
Hear it clear
Speaking out
I have no fear (fear)
Of what others think
Opinions about me (about me)
People do a lot of things
But never doubt thee
In my life
I have a choice
To remain silent
Or use my voice
(Chorus)
There so much that we want to say (want to say)
To afraid of what others might think
So I , I will try (I will try)
To let my voice be heard
Give you a spoken word
Then you'll see
It's in me (it's in me)
You have a choice
Maybe two
What you do is totally up to you
Be heard and not always seen
Using your voice can reveal your dreams
(Verse 2)
Reaching out to a crowd
They can't here me (here me)
Unless I write it out loud
Express what I'm feeling
Give them a vision
Of what I see
Of what Ive done
Can hopefully help anyone
Crying out with no tears
Living this life with no fear
Taking risks (risks)
Silent voices can miss it
Holding your thoughts and opinions
Could have changed the world
But now it's all in a twirl (twirl)
No one could here you
Even if you start talking
You had the faith
But you didn't walk it
You let everyone take your voice
Now they are left with no choice
(Chorus)
There so much that we want to say (want to say)
To afraid of what others might think
So I , I will try (I will try)
To let my voice be heard
Give you a spoken word
Then you'll see
It's in me (it's in me)
You have a choice
Maybe two
What you do is totally up to you
Be heard and not always seen
Using your voice can reveal your dreams
(Hook)
Use your voice
When it feels gone
You will see that
It will not steer you wrong
Try and you'll see
That you can be heard
Don't let others
Sit you down
Speak out
So people can hear you out
Your mind is brilliant
Don't underestimate
You will be successful
Use your voice do whatever it takes
There so much that we want to say (want to say)
To afraid of what others might think
So I , I will try (I will try)
To let my voice be heard
Give you a spoken word
Then you'll see
It's in me (it's in me)
You have a choice
Maybe two
What you do is totally up to you
Be heard and not always seen
Using your voice can reveal your dreams
(Repeat until chorus fades)
