Your Voice (10/21/15)

Zip your lip, keep it quiet, never say a word.
Shut your mouth, don't make a sound, never to be heard.

This is what they tell you,
To keep you in your place,
But you need to make a stand, 
Somehow, some way, some place.

Never let them make you feel,
Like you don't have a voice,
Shout it loud from mountain tops,
It's always been your choice.

Open wide, let it out, shout it loud and clear.
Don't be quiet, turn it up, shout so they can hear.

TLA 4/26/14-10/21/15
