break the silence lyrics

And now I raise my voice... In defiance
To break the chains that have bound these hands
Arrest the fear inside and shed this callous coat
I've got to know just where I stand...

Chorus:

I will... not walk silently through this life
I will... never yield the passion in my soul
I will not surrender what's inside, I could never!
I will... not walk silently through this life this is my promise

And so I'll seize the day because it's all I've got
And I will question everything im taught
Emancipate my life, compel my thoughts
Embrace this world, I will not be bought so...

(Chorus)

And I will stand, and I will break the silence

I will (2x) I will not surrender
I will (2x) I will not surrender

No! I will not walk silent
No! I will not lose hope
No! I will not surrender
No! I'm gonna break the silence

This is my life and I will not give up 'till I die
No more fear, no more lies, I've got to know just where I stand
Each and every day... know just where I stand
