You can be amazing You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug You can be the outcast Or be the backlash of somebody’s lack of love. Or you can start speaking up. Nothing’s gonna hurt you the way that words do. And they settle ‘neath your skin. Kept on the inside and no sunlight. Sometimes a shadow wins. But I wonder what would happen if you be brave. Everybody’s been there, everybody’s been stared down by the enemy. Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing. Bow down to the mighty. Don’t run, stop holding your tongue. Maybe there’s a way out of the cage where you live. Maybe one of these days you can let the light in. Innocence, your history of silence Won’t do you any good Did you think it would? Let your words be anything but empty Why don’t you tell them the truth? One day I will be brave. InsyaAllah.
