Speak For Me

Verse 1
Let you tell it I’m a monster
I only seek for what I might destroy
Let you tell it I’m a mobster
Just a gangster waving guns and girls as toys
Let you tell it I’m no thinker
I could never comprehend my own demise
Let you tell it I’m no winner
I’m not strong enough to go and take the prize
But tall tales never seem to have an ounce of proof
It’s my story and I gotta tell the truth

Hook
When I fall
I grow stronger than ever before
I go harder I break down their walls
And when they try to retell it all
No I won’t keep silent
No I won’t let em speak for me

Verse 2
Let you tell it we’re substandard
Closer to a primate on a chart
Let you tell it we’re so simple
Couldn’t be god-sculpted beauty, works of art
Let you tell it you ain’t scared no
Cuz you got all the guns but still afraid
Let us tell it there’s no way around
We’re still resilient after histories of pain
Cuz your words never seem to live inside the truth
It’s our story filled with centuries of proof

Hook
When we fall
We grow stronger than ever before
We go harder we break down their walls
And when they try to retell it all
No we won’t keep silent
No we won’t let em speak for me

Bridge
See I remember all too well
The stories my mother would tell
While my father reminisced on his own legacy
What about me?
If I live to have my own
I’ll do the same thing until they’re all grown
And I’ll pass this legacy on, just like planting a seed
Only my own can speak for me
For me
For me
For me
For me
For me, yeah

Hook
When we fall
We grow stronger than ever before
We go harder we break down their walls
And when they try to retell it all
No we won’t keep silent
No we won’t let em speak for me

Outro
Won't let em speak for me, yeah
For me, yeah
Won't let em speak for me, yeah
I won't let em speak for me, yeah

Hook
When we fall
We grow stronger than ever before
We go harder we break down their walls
And when they try to retell it all
No we won’t keep silent
No we won’t let em speak for me
