I will not be silenced

I will not be silenced.

As a hispanic male I'm expected to be quiet to you officer,

I'm expected to never speak back to white authority,

I'm not who you expect me to be,

No don't pitty me and my people we don't need it.

And when I speak up don't think I will calm down

I will not be silenced.
