One by One

If one voice, disembodied hidden in a surging crowd of thousands
Start screaming soon others will follow
We’ll follow
Though I cannot foresee a better tomorrow I will not give up trying
I will not give up!
I will not bow down to the powers of control
I’m taking back what they stole from me
My life, my dignity
Won’t settle for this false sense of security
We’ve had enough!
Staying in line has long been the norm
But we will not be scared into silence
We’ve had enough! People are rising…
One by one we will rise, reclaiming control of our lives
