[Spoken Intro]
Quiet, be quiet!
Don’t talk like that anymore…
Watch your manners—mind your manners!
You say no one will ever like me!
Verse 1
You want to discipline me,
Take control and reshape me,
Decide who I’m supposed to be,
Dictate everything I say.
You want me to bow down and obey,
To erase what lives inside me.
You claim to know what’s best for me,
But you never listen to my heart.
Pre-Chorus
It’s all just blah, blah, blah—for no good reason,
Blah, blah, blah—it only clouds my mind.
But I’ve woken up; I won’t give in anymore,
I am the master of my own being!
Chorus - strong, danceable vocals
Quiet, be quiet!
No one’s going to tell me what to do or say ever again!
Blah, blah, blah—it’s all for nothing,
My heart is the only one who truly knows me!
Blah, blah, blah—it makes me lose sight of who I am,
From this moment on, I am simply me!
If you want to stay, then stay,
And if you want to leave, then go!
Verse 2
You want to steer every step I take,
Keep me right by your side at all times.
You call it "for my own good," but it’s just control—
You’re trying to hold my freedom in your hands.
I’m not a doll for you to twist and turn,
Not a shadow for you to boss around.
I have a voice, I have my own desires,
And I’m going to dance in my own way!
Bridge
Blah, blah, blah—you don’t get to tell me what to do anymore!
Blah, blah, blah—yes, I am free!
You won’t silence the rhythm of my life;
I’m going to dance until the sun comes up!
Chorus - repeated with more intensity
Quiet, be quiet!
No one else is going to tell me what to do or say.
Blah, blah, blah—it makes no sense!
My heart is the only one that truly knows me!
Blah, blah, blah—don’t try to tell me who I am;
From this moment on, I am simply me!
Those who want to stay, let them stay—
And those who want to leave, let them go!
Outro
This is my time!
This is my sound!
I am me, and yes—I am free!
