Verse 1Am
I cut my teeth, on the back of an old church pew
I learned to walk in the ways of light and truth

And I was told not to speak til I was spoken to
Am
I heard it preached, what I should and I should not do
And the choir sang

Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh

And this world's gone see what I am standing for
AmADG
I've kept my peace, I can't hold my tongue anymore
ChorusAmC
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice
DAmEG
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise
AmC
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth

But there's a time to speak and the time is now
Am
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Verse 2AAm
The squeaky wheel is always getting greased
Well, I've been sitting still
Park here on the side of the street

Always tip-toeing trying not to wake the beast

Oh but here I come
G
All you monsters had better run from me
