You say our lyrics are forbidden,

Our words shouldn’t be spoken,

But we won’t keep quiet,

Not when our hearts are broken.

You tell us to stay silent,

To stay in our place,

But we’ll raise our voices,

No matter the disgrace.

These are the forbidden chords we play,

The songs that you can’t take away.

You can try to silence us,

But we won’t be hushed,

Our music’s the truth, it’s what we say.

These forbidden chords, we won’t obey.

You want us to fade into the night,

To live in the shadows, out of sight,

But we’re burning with a fire inside,

Our words, our rhythm, we can’t hide.

They try to tear us down, keep us apart,

But our forbidden chords are just the start.

We’ll play them loud, we’ll make you see,

The power in our song, it’s who we’ll be.

These are the forbidden chords we play,

The songs that you can’t take away.

You can try to silence us,

But we won’t be hushed,

Our music’s the truth, it’s what we say.

These forbidden chords, we won’t obey.

They say it’s wrong, but we won’t stop,

We’ll keep strumming, no matter the cost.

In every note, in every line,

We’ll sing what’s ours, and it will shine.

These are the forbidden chords we play,

The songs that you can’t take away.

You can try to silence us,

But we won’t be hushed,

Our music’s the truth, it’s what we say.

These forbidden chords, we won’t obey.

So hear our voices, hear them loud,

We’ll play our chords, we stand proud.

Forbidden, yes, but we’ll remain,

Singing our truth, breaking the chain.
