You can hate me, try to break me
Talk me down and denigrate me
You can try to silence every word
But I will not be leaving quietly, no

I won't leave
I won't leave
I will not be leaving quietly

And you can mock me, try to out smart me
You can shame me and try to blame me
You can do your best to shut me up
But I will not be leaving quietly, no

I won't leave
I won't leave
I will not be leaving quietly

I'm gonna stand here
And I'll fight for every word
I'm gonna shout the truth
Until you know it's heard

I'm gonna stand here
And I'll fight for every word
I'm gonna shout the truth
Until you know it's heard, yea

You can scold me, attempt to control me
Ban me and censor and label and troll me
You can push me and try to kick me out
But I will not be leaving quietly, no

I won't leave
I won't leave
I will not be leaving quietly

And you can mute me, Strike and dispute me
Dumb down the rest, yea, but I'll keep refusin'
You can pretend like you've seen the last of me
But I will not be leaving quietly, no

I won't leave
I won't leave
I will not be leaving quietly

I'm gonna stand here
And I'll fight for every word
I'm gonna shout the truth
Until you know it's heard

I'm gonna stand here
And I'll fight for every word
I'm gonna shout the truth
Until you know it's heard, yea

You can hate me, try to break me
Talk me down and denigrate me
You can try to silence every word
But I will not be leaving quietly, no

I won't leave
I won't leave
I will not be leaving quietly, no

I won't leave
I won't leave
I will not be leaving quietly, no

I won't leave
I won't leave
I will not be leaving quietly
