Lyrics
Chorus
Too loud to proud
Speak up sit down
Too strong all wrong
Please bow not now
Renell Shaw
Every revolution needs a leader
But every leader doesn’t need to be a public speaker
And if we allow our history to be the teacher
We can see assassination seems to be a feature
Poking it’s tip onto our spirit when we get deeper
Equality is nice but economy is a healer
We eat crumbs to survive when there’s a loaf that we could feast on
And the system provides enough distraction what’s the reason?
Chorus
Too loud to proud
Speak up sit down
Too strong all wrong
Please bow not now
Renell Shaw
So we don’t think
Bread and circuses my G
Juvenal he told you in the second century
Affectively, and it’s evolved aggressively
We’re addicted to the joys of a text, a ring, a like, a friend, a view and a follow will bring
Neglect to wider cry’s of the struggle within
Conflicting thoughts of what you were taught and what you have seen
Ya spirit nah feel right what does it mean?
Chorus
Too loud to proud
Speak up sit down
Too strong all wrong
Please bow not now X4

Baby girl
I bet they never tell you that your beautiful
And baby girl
They’re Jealous of your powers? ain’t unusual
System built to break you down
The Individual makes their sound
To feed your insecurity
Then say your immature
You see they take, the shirt that’s on your back
Rob you clean attack
Leave quickly coming back
Pre Chorus
So I’m Too loud Can’t speak up Should sit down
Then I’m too proud Can’t keep up Make no sound X2
Chorus
Too loud to proud
Speak up sit down
Too strong all wrong
Please bow not now X2

Don’t let them take your heart and pride away
You know they’ve tried before they still try today
But no need to fear or to run away
You may just have to fight yeah
Fight to think fight to breath though its so frightening
No surrender no retreat continue rising
Just keep on trying
Continue fighting
I think we might win
Pre Chorus
So I’m Too loud Can’t speak up Should sit down
Then I’m too proud Can’t keep up Make no sound X2
Chorus
Too loud to proud
Speak up sit down
Too strong all wrong
Please bow not now X2
Guitar Solo
Chorus
