Hayley Orrantia Silence You song lyrics

You're not everybody's expectations

You're not just the cards you're dealt

You aren't a product of your generation

You are what you make yourself

Take all that you're afraid to say

Post it up and put it on display

You don't have to play nice now

Stay held down

Shut up and keep your quiet

Don't have to take the easy way out

Follow the in-crowd

Stand up and make a riot

Nothing's gonna change if you won't

No, nothing's gonna change if you don't

It'll be the hardest thing you'll ever have to do

But don't let them silence you

When you look back on this moment

You'll wish you'd spoken your mind

Step up to the plate and own it

Instead of blending in the sidelines

Take all that you're afraid to be

Light it up for everyone to see

You don't have to play nice now

Stay held down

Shut up and keep your quiet

Don't have to take the easy way out

Follow the in-crowd

Stand up and make a riot

Nothing's gonna change if you won't

No, nothing's gonna change if you don't

It'll be the hardest thing you'll ever have to do

But don't let them silence you

When we're gone

Our words live on

So don't let them silence (silence) silence (silence), oh, you

You don't have to play nice now

Stay held down

Shut up and keep your quiet

Don't have to take the easy way out

Follow the in-crowd

Stand up and make a riot

Nothing's gonna change if you won't

No, nothing's gonna change if you don't

It'll be the hardest thing you'll ever have to do

But don't let them silence you, no

Don't let them silence you
