I Have A Right - Sonata Arctica

Give me the right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything I need to be me

To be safe, to believe… in something

I have a right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything I need to be me

To be safe, to believe… in something

Father, there’s a little flower

Beautiful and different

All alone… all alone

Is it so, Dad?

I’m not supposed to

Make the world anew, and be like you?

Am I you?

Give me the gift to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be me

To be safe, to believe… in something

I have a right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be me

To be safe, to believe… in something

Right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be me

You made it clear right

From the start

I am to take your sour

Heart within, one sad day

But I will never teach my son

Embittered history, tried and true, cause I’m not you

I have a right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be me

To be safe, to believe… in something

I have a right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To have every gift… I need to be me

To be safe, to believe… in something

Give me the eyes so I see

Give me ears so I hear

Give me love so I know what love is

Give me the freedom to think

To believe… in something

I have a right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be me

To be safe, to believe… in something

I have a special right to grow up

And to develop physically and spiritually in a healthy and normal way

Free, and with dignity

I have the right to love, and understanding

My parents have special responsibilities for my education and guidance

I should be taught peace

Understanding, tolerance, and friendship among all people

So give me the gift to hear, to see

The love, the freedom to choose the things I feel

To be right for the world you’ll leave me

Give something!

Give me the right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be me

To be safe, to believe… in something

I have a right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be me

To be safe, to believe… in something

Oh oh oh oh oh

Give me the right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be me

To be safe, to believe… in something

Right to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be heard

To be seen, to be loved, to be free

To be everything… I need to be heard
