No more.
No shame, no fear.
No holding me back.
This is my time.
This is my year.
I'm taking my power back.
Fed up and frustrated,
I'm standing up.
I'm done making amends.
I'm going to represent,
lead the debate, and
face the attacks in the end.
I'll get out there
and do my best,
speak out, and
inspire some hope.
Yeah, I'm far from powerless,
I am the Revolt.
