Lyrics
Referral
It?s dark out here,
and everybody?s looking around
They?re waiting for a way to escape
There?s no way out of ? here
And everybody?s looking at me, T
hey?re trying to see what I?m planning to do,
Don?t they know, don?t they know, don?t they know
I?m just standing here, like a ? fool
CHORUS
But step out of fear
The fear that you can?t do anything
You can do anything
But trust me it won?t stop
Until you ? drop the anger
They took you away
And you didn?t even turn your face
Don?t they know you?re just eight,
When they scream at you that way?
If I were you, I wouldn?t even come to school I?d run away from here, They?re just gonna be cruel
CHORUS
(Quiet section, 3rd verse)
You?re standing in the hall,
you?re trying not to cry
But I see it in your eyes,
you?re that little boy inside
Just care for you ?
no matter what they say or do
Promise me grow up one day ?
break this system that failed you
CHORUS
But step out of fear,
the fear that you can?t do anything
And listen to you ? not to them
And seek out the truth,
or it will never end
