VOICES in the Hallway Lyrics
made with Suno Ai
by AFTF Advocates
[Verse 1]Boots in the classroom, stompin' on the floor Pencils scratchin' stories, dreams beggin' for more A kid in the corner, quiet as a stone World ain't built for 'em, but they ain't alone
[Chorus]Voices in the hallway, shoutin' for the change Breakin' all the silence, breakin' through the chains Every child’s a diamond, polished in their way Fightin’ for their future, brighter every day
[Verse 2]Desks all in rows, but they don’t all fit Education’s a puzzle, can’t just quit IEPs on paper, but hearts in the fight Turn the darkened road into one full of light
[Bridge]Teachers with passion, parents with the fire Advocates risin’, liftin’ kids higher It’s not about test scores, or grades on the line It’s about hearin’ every voice, lettin’ ‘em shine
[Chorus]Voices in the hallway, shoutin' for the change Breakin' all the silence, breakin' through the chains Every child’s a diamond, polished in their way Fightin’ for their future, brighter every day
[Verse 3]Tears on the desk, frustration in the airBut love builds the bridges, crossin' every careKids with their dreams, as wild as the plainsWe’re the ones who water ‘em, growin’ through the pain
