The eyes yearn to cry But are silenced in their tears The heart longs to pound But is silenced in its fears The lips wish to move To speak to express But are tied in silence Nobody notices nobody cares Oppression is a powerful weapon If only you chose it to be But is you break those bonds of yours And rise high If you don't let your feelings Be your obstacles, but your wings If you let the world listen to your voice If you can make them notice Make them care You will know that you're powerful You will know that you're free

Oppression
The eyes yearn to cry But are silenced in their tears The heart longs to pound But is silenced in its fears The lips wish to move To speak to express But are tied in silence Nobody notices nobody cares Oppression is a powerful weapon If only you chose it to be But is you break those bonds of yours And rise high If you don't let your feelings Be your obstacles, but your wings If you let the world listen to your voice If you can make them notice Make them care You will know that you're powerful You will know that you're free
