This song channels my inner fear of not being able to let others listen to what I have to say through my music. People have told me I couldn't sing, and treated me like a complete joke in school. Before the world ends, I want people to listen to my stories... so I gotta get louder.
lyrics
Staring at the phone
hoping i will get a call
let it go
hearts beat in sync
when will you know
tell me so
I don't wanna be a clown running on the streets
Baby baby baby please
Light up all the sparks inside my heart
You keep saying I can't do this
and keep drowning me out
But if the world ends today
I don't wanna have regrets
I don't wanna be the last one standing here
Don't wanna leave this world in fear
that no one's around to hear
So I gotta get loud
and watch me get louder louder louder
feel it get louder louder louder
hear me get louder louder louder
and pump it through your veins, veins veins
and watch me get loud
loud, loud, loud
You said I was always
standing in the dark
afraid to show
cause sitting here
and no one ever sees me or
hear me out
Pre-chorus
Chorus
When no one's looking imma dancin' on my own
let it go let it go let it go oh oh
if I don't tell them, this music left in me
I will never know
Chorus
