Louder than them

Verse 1

They talk over me, think I’ll just smile,

Pat me on the head, say “stay for a while,”

But I’ve got teeth and I’ve got claws,

And I’m not here to play by their laws.

Pre-Chorus (growl into scream)

Oh-oh-oh… I’m done being small,

Oh-oh-oh… gonna burn it all.

Chorus (full power)

I’m a girl in a world full of men,

And I’ll scream ‘til they hear me again,

Break the glass with my voice, with my fire,

Set the rules and I’ll take it higher.

You can try to drown me, but I’ll swim—

And I’ll always be louder than them.

Verse 2

They dress me up, tell me to behave,

But I’m not a doll and I’m not your slave,

I’ve been quiet but not for long,

This mouth was made for a war song.

Pre-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh… watch me rise,

Oh-oh-oh… open your eyes.

Chorus (full power)

I’m a girl in a world full of men,

And I’ll scream ‘til they hear me again,

Break the glass with my voice, with my fire,

Set the rules and I’ll take it higher.

You can try to drown me, but I’ll swim—

And I’ll always be louder than them.

Bridge (fast & defiant)

You can’t chain what was born to run,

I’m the lightning that outshines the sun,

Every “no” just feeds my flame,

Every whisper remembers my name.

Final Chorus (scream it unapologetically)

I’m a girl in a world full of men,

And I’ll scream ‘til they hear me again,

Break the glass with my voice, with my fire,

Set the rules and I’ll take it higher.

You can try to drown me, but I’ll swim—

And I’ll always be louder than them.
