Raise Your Hand

[Verse 1]
They say this world is made for a man to keep his gold
"Sit up straight, just keep your head down, do what you're told"
They might throw you in when your hands and feet are bound
And you might rise to the top, or you might drown

[Verse 2]
I was left sittin' in a room with a heart made of glass
Keeping it quiet like a bad kid in the back of the class
But I ain't gonna sit here no more and wait for that heart to be broke
You might swallow it down, or you might choke

[Pre-Chorus]
I won't back down
This is my world now
Every woman, every child and every man knows
You can tell it to the preacher, 'cause now I'm the teacher
If you wanna talk to me you better

[Chorus]
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raisе your hand

[Verse 3]
They say that it's actions that speak much louder than words
But еverything you see from me is exactly what you've heard
So tell me, is your story told before the page is turned?
You might start the fire, or you might burn

[Pre-Chorus]
I won't back down
This is my world now
Every woman, every child and every man knows
You can tell it to the preacher, 'cause now I'm the teacher
If you wanna talk to me you better

[Chorus]
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand

[Outro]
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
Raise your hand
