I cut my teeth, on the back of an old church pew I learned to walk in the ways of light and truth And I was told not to speak til I was spoken to I heard it preached, what I should and I should not do And the choir sang Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh I tried to be a good boy but I ain't a boy no more I've seen somethings that a man just can't ignore And this world's gone see what I am standing for I've kept my peace, I can't hold my tongue anymore You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth But there's a time to speak and the time is now Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh The squeaky wheel is always getting greased Well, I've been sitting still Park here on the side of the street Always tip-toeing trying not to wake the beast Oh but here I come All you monsters had better run from me You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth But there's a time to speak and the time is now Ooh It's the time and the time is now Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth But there's a time to speak and the time is now You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth But there's a time to speak and the time is now Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
