Lyrics
Rockin' In Rage
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If I can't speak my truth for fear of bein' abused
I might as well be a mute, my voice never used
I'll be maligned, I'll be distant and trolled
If I can't be aligned, I'll be thrown in the cold
I don't think I've ever felt so out on the margin
I'm too old to fight and we share these in blades
I feel like a leper, like handin' my cards in
Like I don't have the right to join the parades
I'm rockin' in rage, forward and back
My bones is engaged, they splinter and crack
Deep fire in the clock in one last rampage
Drop all the lines, I'm rockin' in rage
Rockin' in rage, oh, I won't leave the stage
Oh, yeah, I'm rockin' in rage
If you can ride it right here, you know how to die
If you can conquer your fear, you'll get to fly
Ooh, you'll get to fly
This must be your right, to get it down on the page
You know you must write, you know you must rage
You might learn to fly, get out on the stage
But you might as well lie, unless you can rage
I don't think I've ever felt so out on the margin
I'm too old to fight and we share these in blades
I feel like a leper, like handin' my cards in
Like I don't have the right to join the parades
I'm rockin' in rage, well past my prime
Denyin' the curtain, waitin' on time
So this is the carver, the death before age
I thought I'd be kind, but I'm rockin' in rage
Rockin' in rage, oh, I won't leave the stage
I'm rockin' in rage, rockin' in rage
Rockin' in rage, no, I won't leave the stage
'Cause I'm rockin' in rage
Rockin', oh, my heart in a cage
If I can't speak my truth for fear of being abused
Might as well be a mute, my voice never used
This must be my right, get it down on the page
I know I must write, I know I must rage
