"No more meekly saying 'yes' When my heart……" — Nate
"No more meekly saying 'yes' When my heart is screaming 'no' No more taming of my feelings So my power wont show No more hiding my exuberance From disapproving eyes No more watering down myself So my spirit won't rise No more 'smalling up' of me Pretending I am not here No more running from the music And the spotlight's glare No more living in this prison Barricaded by my fears No more turning and retreating In the face of new frontiers"
