glitter Lyrics

I refuse to keep my head in the sand

Shrug the misery, say it's out of my hands

I refuse to claim what is just is

I need justice

I refuse to hear we're too young to know

I need to feel like I am in control

I refuse to lie down and just take it

I need justice

For the girl forced to be a woman

For the boy whose life was stolen

For the lives who were told they don't matter

The world is darker cos you were the glitter

That holds it together

I refuse to keep ignoring the call

Not even listening makes no sense at all

I refuse to claim what is just is

We need justice

I refuse to believe in color blind

It's far too personal, just be kind

I refuse to be beaten down and take it

We need justice

For the girl forced to be a woman

For the boy whose life was stolen

For the lives who were told they don't matter

The world is darker cos you were the glitter

For the wife told she's just a mother

For that man reduced to a number

For the lives who are told they don't matter

The world is darker without your glitter

For the girl forced to be a woman

For the boy whose life was stolen

For the lives who were told they don't matter

The world is darker cos you were the glitter

That holds us together

You are the glitter.
