Play The Role

Do it well, what you set your mind to

Wake up and stretch and take in the day

Don't waste away becoming nothing

Just take a step and raise your voice

Proclaim who you are and lift your head

Walk with pride just for a day

Standing in the shoes of those who oppressed you

Play the part and play it well

Become the role and turn into that character

That person that lays deep inside your chest

Waiting to come about, wait to make the scene

Do it the way that you know how

It's a riskey business walking out your frontdoor

But take the chance and live your life

It only comes once in forever so make it right

Stop hidding in the shadows, come into the light

Be yourself, the true self that lives inside

Let your smile shine and stand on high

On the highest mountain make your way

Tell the world that kept you down, no more

Breakdown the walls everyone built to keep you in

Show them that no matter what you will be free

In this life or the next you will know liberty

Make the cut but not by them but by yourself

Set the bar and jumb over by leaps and bounds

For the days of being caged are dead and gone

Now is the time to live the life that you make

So pick up your sword and march forward in war

Wrap yourself in truth and wage revenge on the world

Keep it coming don't ever stop

Just as they would, if you had never gotten out

Ready, lights, camera, action

Rolling now is the movie of your life

You wrote the title now play the role
