Speak for Me - A-Natural

Let you tell it I’m a monster

I only seek for what I might destroy

Let you tell it I’m a mobster

Just a gangster waving guns and girls as toys

Let you tell it I’m no thinker

I could never comprehend my own demise

Let you tell it I’m no winner

I’m not strong enough to go and take the prize

But tall tales never seem to have an ounce of proof

It’s my story and I gotta tell the truth

Hook

When I fall

I grow stronger than ever before

I go harder I break down their walls

And when they try to retell it all

No I won’t keep silent

No I won’t let em speak for me

Let you tell it we’re substandard

Closer to a primate on a chart

Let you tell it we’re so simple

Couldn’t be god-sculpted beauty, works of art

Let you tell it you ain’t scared no

Cuz you got all the guns but still afraid

Let us tell it there’s no way around

We’re still resilient after histories of pain

Cuz your words never seem to live inside the truth

It’s our story filled with centuries of proof

Hook

When we fall

We grow stronger than ever before

We go harder we break down their walls

And when they try to retell it all

No we won’t keep silent

No we won’t let em speak for me

Bridge

See I remember all too well

The stories my mother would tell

While my father reminisced on his own legacy

What about me?

If I live to have my own

I’ll do the same thing until they’re all grown

And I’ll pass this legacy on, just like planting a seed

Only my own can speak for me

For me

For me

For me

For me

For me, yeah

Hook

When we fall

We grow stronger than ever before

We go harder we break down their walls

And when they try to retell it all

No we won’t keep silent

No we won’t let em speak for me

Outro

Won’t let em speak for me, yeah

For me, yeah

Won’t let em speak for me, yeah

I won’t let em speak for me, yeah
