Story Behind The Song

This is about the phrase "A woman should be seen and not heard"

Song Description

"Hush This - Honey" is a defiant protest anthem about reclaiming voice and power in the face of silencing, oppression, and control. Fierce and unapologetic, the song declares that no matter how hard the world tries to quiet women, their truth, spirit, and sound will always rise.

Lyrics

Verse 1
They say a woman's tongue should rust,
Bury her words in the dirt and dust.
But I was born with a howl in my chest,
A wild hymn that won't be repressed.
Chorus
Hush this, honey--try if you dare,
But my song rides heavy through the midnight air.
You can bind my hands, you can strike me down,
Still my voice will rise from the broken ground.
Verse 2
You build your throne on silence and shame,
Carve your laws in another's name.
But thunder listens, the river knows,
The truth burns hotter than the lies you chose.
Chorus
Hush this, honey--try if you dare,
But my song rides heavy through the midnight air.
You can bind my hands, you can strike me down,
Still my voice will rise from the broken ground.
Bridge
Every chain you cast will turn to rust,
Every shackle's shadow will fade to dust.
I am the fire that the night can't drown,
I am the drumbeat shaking the ground.
Final Chorus
Hush this, honey--your kingdom falls,
To the cries of the silenced, to the outlaw calls.
You can burn the fields, you can damn the sky,
But my spirit sings and it will not die.
Outro
Hush this, honey--
But you'll never hush me.
