Dear Milck, You don't know how much comfort, bravery and power this song has given me to try to not keep quiet. Just want to say thank you for making this awesome song!
I first heard this song the day I attended the Women's March in DC. I listened to it over and over, sometimes sobbing... because I finally, for the 1st time, heard someone singing exactly how I felt! From start to finish, this song helped me make large strides in my healing journey. This video is so very different from the video I originally saw, a couple years ago. It looks like you also found some healing through this journey. That is wonderful to see. Thank you for having the courage to share this at the March, thank you for having the bravery to let us in and begin our own healing. Wishing you peace and love. #heartnetwork2020
So many of us have been there. I don't know how many times I can say "thank you" for writing this song. Maybe the collective chorus will be able to express it. I hope so. Crying right now, again, with gratitude.
So.. that just made me cry. The dad taking his daughters hand and spinning her around, ugh.. broke me down. Thank you, this is a beautiful video and I love this song. I will download the new version today. I have the older one already and I blast it many times during my drive to and from work. ❤️❤️❤️
This song is very powerful. Especially when it happened to you. Happened to me my whole life growing up and even still when I was 40. Was afraid to tell anybody cuz the guy that did it to me was my moms husband. He told me that if o ever told anybody, that he would laugh in my face cuz he has family in the police dept. Wtf?
I’m a survivor of Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence I always need to hear this song every day it inspires me so much thank you I keep fighting every day when the Dad accepted his Daughter it made me really emotional because he was accepting his Daughter for who she is
Ive been sexually assaulted 7 times 5 times by my brother and once from my old best friend and once from a roommate in a mental hospital. I am a survivor and I am tired of having to forgive them while I can’t forgive myself. I’ve listen to this song for a long while and I am a survivor and will never let someone do that to me and be quiet.
Have you ever considered CBT, sorry im not promoting anything, I promise, I just generally want to help those who have been through trauma. Im not even a CBT therapist but I have used CBT myself, also you can break that chain, you can gain the tools in order to protect yourself, you didn't deserve any of that, you didn't make it happen, you certainly can prevent it ever happening again, unfortunately we live in a world where these things are hidden and it shouldn't be that way cause in truth you are set free. Much love to you, sometimes validation is the only thing you need. x
I found this song from The Bold Type. It was a very powerful scene and i balled my eyes out. Couldn’t stop listening ever since. Thank you for your music. It’s so important.
I’m a male and I’m a survivor of sexual assault this music is what we need to hear in this time period . It happen on the campus of uw Milwaukee in 2015 . I was attack in the shower forced by attackers to do what they did or I’d be dead today
Came here from seeing a snippet of your song on "This Is Pop" on Netflix and glad I did! Really like your interview, and hearing your emotional journey to find thing weren't your fault and to free yourself from it, its inspiring. Thank you for sharing that moment, and to keep striving! As always stay safe out there!
Yes, I started watching the show too and found Milck and other artists that I had forgotten about. I hope more people are finding This Is Pop and share it. Connie Lim is so talented I cried the first time I heard her song.
I heard this song for the first time when it was on The Bold Type, and that scene alongside this song just moved me beyond measure. Quiet, what you stand for, the whole movement, has really helped me figure myself out. I feel so connected. Such a beautiful video with amazing musicians portraying such an important message. So much talent. Not gonna lie, this has been my emotional jam for months. ❤️
Me too. I heard on the Bold Type and that scene touched me to my soul, I actually cried especially the line "maybe there will be someone who understands "Thank you for such a beautiful song.
At over sixty years old myself, this song and MILCK's voice both haunts me and brings me to tears. There is nothing more powerful than a voice. When voices come together the strength becomes evident and undeniable. Keep speaking! Keep telling! Keep sharing!
I'm sorry for self-promoting.....but I felt very heartbroken when I first listened to this song and understood the story behind it thus I've posted an animated lyric video (in addition to several other songs). I believe that the way I displayed this song through the background, lyrics, animation, etc thoroughly conveys this beautiful and powerful message 😍🔥🔥❤. If you kindly took the time to watch my video it would really mean the world to me as I've put a lot of effort into it. Thankkkssssss!
Even after 30 + years, I needed this song! Thank you for helping me realize I'm still hurting. I always thought it was my fault. I know I've been damaged ever since.
I found this after watching New Amsterdam today. I was straight up ugly crying as I held my 9 week old daughter who had finally fallen asleep as the song played. Such a strong message and such a source of strength for so many. Music speaks to us on so many levels and helps say the things we find hard to any other way. I’ve already had to play this twice more today to get my daughter to sleep and each time I cried because of the video and message. 💕
I sang this song last year at my schools talent show. I was a sophomore at the time and was inspired when I saw MILCK at Hello Sunshine in Cincy. I planned on singing A Little Peace this year, but my talent show was canceled due to the pandemic. I'm known as the "feminist girl" who speaks out during a fun, extracurricular, event. Every year, my dad joins me on stage (he went to Hello Sunshine too). Next year, as a senior, I plan on performing If I Ruled the World. MILCK, you have no idea how much you have inspired me. I carry on your message to my somewhat conservative town. I just wanted to thank you, because you're music has allowed me to grow in confidence.
I hope one day we build a society that will leave this song rendered completely confusing and irrelevant. Until then... thanks for listening, and hope it brings strength. Much love.
The first time I heard this song was at a fundraiser event to raise awareness for human trafficking. I was helping backstage with the costumes and this song just really made such an impact. This week the woman who sang this song at the event died tragically. It was an event that she had organised and participated in, sharing her passion for helping people. She was an inspiration and a rock to so many people, forever a shining light and always willing to help where she could. This song will now also serve as a reminder of who she was and what she stood for, for many years to come.
I heard this on the new independent film by Jennifer Esposito fresh skills out now on prime video ! touched me deeply and I searched and I found this song. Thank you, Jennifer.
Idc that the views are low and idc if TH-cam picked this to be on trending instead of the algorithm picking it. It was beautiful. If not for trending I wouldn't have found this gem. Wonderful message and made me want to cry. This is beautiful, keep doing wonderful things.
I’m listening this song for confidence. My friend group are about to confront the guy I used to be with who... didn’t stop at no and kick him out of the group and tell him to leave us all alone. Thanks for the song. It helps. Stay strong everyone.
every generation gets one and Milck is that special Estrella guiding this one; you simply run out of breath trying to keep up with her strength and timeless truths that make it hard for any father not to shed a tear wishing for the best life for all daughters everywhere..and the wisdom of their sons to guard and celebrate those lives;
This song and music is exactly what the world needs right now. I crave for music like this . Thank you to all involved in this wonderful powerful song & video 👍
Irish1Ellen I'm so sick and tired of most rappers talking drugs in a bad way, cars, money, being so gangsta, getting girls etc. You know all that stereotypical crap rappers rap about
I saw you perform this song at the Women's March. It was life changing for me, I just didn't know it at the time. This song & you have been a source of strength to me in dark times. Thank you.
Put on your face Know your place Shut up and smile Don't spread your legs I could do that But no one knows me no one ever will If I don't say something, if I just lie still Would I be that monster, scare them all away If I let them hear what I have to say I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh A one woman riot, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh I can't keep quiet For anyone Anymore Cuz no one knows me no one ever will If I don't say something, take that dry blue pill They may see that monster, they may run away But I have to do this I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh A one woman riot, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh I can't keep quiet Let it out, let it out now Let it out now There'll be someone who understands Let it out, let it out now Let it out now Must be someone who'll understand Let it out, let it out now Let it out now There'll be someone who understands Let it out, let it out now Let it out now I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh Let it out, let it out now Let it out now I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh Let it out, let it out now Let it out now I can't keep quiet No, I won't keep quiet
I was in a music summer camp full of privileged kids and I was only able to go because I'm in foster care and my social worker paid for it. we sang this song with our choir and many people laughed when I started to cry because they didn't know how powerful this song is to me being a transgender youth and sexual assault survivor
I just found this song, sad that I could've been vibing to this for four years before now. As a trans kid and a sexual assault survivor, this beautiful music video really gets to me; add that with Milck's amazing voice and you've got me crying. Your voice is so powerful, Milck, I love this.
I'm glad you're here in perfect timing. Better late than never, and I'm sending you so so so much love. Thank you for sharing your story here. I'm sure it will help many others.
This song fits the movie Fresh Kills so well. Especially due to Rose's story arch. At one point her aunt tells her she wasn't quiet because she was shy, but she had too much to say. Referring to the fact that she was in a mafia family where they couldn't talk openly about all the illegal activity the men were up to, and if they were critical of their patriarch for putting them through so much trauma then they'd be shamed. Heartbreaking movie, but worth a watch if you get a chance. Ya don't often see mob movies from the females' perspectives.
I was always quite. I still am. And I've been asked to stay quiet. To keep my family together I still am. But it hurts me every moment of my existence as expected. I don't think I'll ever truly speak up in this life, but I'm glad this song exists because it calms the hurt. It lets me speak out in my head atleast. So thank you so much for unintentionally being a voice for me and many others 💜
I hope with time and support, you can find your voice. I was molested as a child in the 60's. My parents knew but it was kept hidden. I was so young I didn't recall the incident until 25 years later. I wasn't even sure if it had happened. I asked my mother and she confirmed that it had and apologized for how it was handled. She too had been sexually assaulted as a child. Times change and so can we.
I've been performing burlesque to your songs for about 6 years now, both pieces are very meaningful for me. I hadn't watched this video yet and it added yet another layer to this song's significance to me. Thank you so much
This video gets me every time. Parents who love their child and support her identity and a girl who struggles with sexual assault finding her voice... it’s incredibly beautiful!
i just seen the video, it was great seeing dad except her and hold her hand and spin around. mad me cry. i am going to down load the song my self also and by the album or CD
Im in physical therapy at the moment. My girlfriend left me 2 weeks into my injury, I came onto this song today.... The hardest thing I find is to talk to people no matter how close they are to me because they would run away if I did say something. Everytime I think I've got someone that won't leave and I open up then they do. I hate that things are happening right now that make me cry that I cant even stop even though I try so damn hard. This song hit me hard....
I loved this song when I first heard it. Couldn't find the details until watching "This Changes Everything" documentary which credited it in the captions. Grateful to have the details now. Very good song. Solid message.
Holy sh*t!! I bet you're reading this and thinking, "im so sick of the music these days i wish their was a new artist I could get hooked on". Well THERE IS! Me. Thumbs this up so people can see my music.
Why should we? I wouldn't do it for my dad to pretend our lives behind closed doors were great. What a better person to sing this than somebody so sweetly talented and beautiful.
Just heard this for the first time watching the documentary "This Changes Everything." Listening to it, while watching all the women's marches completely moved me!
this amazing u r word at every powerful this ENCOURAGES girls to SPEAK UP and don't keep QUIET and shut people out to be the STRONGEST u can be for the next girl in those Situations to be BRAVE
I completely agree with the words, it was one of the most beautiful and heartbreaking songs I’ve ever heard. Respect for MILCK (singing) and all those women going through that right now.
I saw a sponsored ad for this song on Instagram and it got stuck in my head while I was at school. So when I got home I saw the ad again and I had to check it out. I'm glad I did.
I cry everytime i listen to this song ,this song means so much to me ,i can relate a lot to this song♥ Edit:I'm coming back to this song 3 years later and it still means so much to me 💞
oh my gosh I think you'e amazing. I Saw you at Eleven Eleven and really touched me with your voice and important message. I wish you huge success. You message in "Quiet" is such an important one right now. Bless you.
You're not the ONLY one 😍❤. It's such a beautiful song with an amazing/powerful message. Sorry for self-promoting but I've posted an animated lyric video....I believe the background expresses this song just perfectly. I've put a lot of effort into making it. If you would kindly take the time it would really mean the world to me ❤. I hope i won't disappoint you.
Eu sofri abuso quando tinha 8 anos de um vizinho amigo do meu padrasto, que vivia dentro de casa. Todos confiavam nele inclusive minha mãe, que me deixou sozinha com ele várias vezes. Eu relatei os abusos a minha mãe que nunca acreditou em mim, dizia que eu fantasiava muito. Minhas casa nunca foi um lar de compreensão e conversa.Eu sempre me senti culpada, sempre me retrai pq sentia q de alguma forma eu tinha atraído o olhar dele sei lá, eu era uma criança muito alegre, amorosa, gentil com todos, mesmo não tendo muitas alegrias em casa eu sempre estava sorrindo. Eu senti a vida inteira q de alguma forma isso poderia ter dado a ele um sensação de liberdade comigo. Mas eu tinha oito anos, oito!
I know you probably will not see my comment, but I still want to say that you inspire me. Your music is so powerful, and I feel even more driven to help others and take action. Thank you so much for everything :)
The best thing happening in the world today is people who have been silenced for too long have had enough and are finally finding allies in the empowered community willing to stand next to them. It is past time that we all stand up and demand that all people are treated with compassion and decency.
Something I want to say to my 15 year old self I want to tell you... it wasn't your fault so stop blaming yourself..., neither was it mom's or dad's for leaving you in his house. It is going to be tough but it doesn't hurt after sometime, maybe sometimes it does and you get a burst of emotions. You turn numb, so try to be cheerful. Don't hurt yourself cause that shit takes time to heal. Don't waste 5 years of your life holding back your tears and crying in silence. Don't get hurt when your parents blame you...... it's just who they are. You are alone but you always have me.
A Girl From Mogadishu brought me to this song. This song has Power & Truth. In so mamy ways. * crooked attorneys.* Proof is viable. This will be challenging- I Won't Be Quiet. I Won't be afraid! Thank you! This song was confirmation for me!
Dear Milck,
You don't know how much comfort, bravery and power this song has given me to try to not keep quiet.
Just want to say thank you for making this awesome song!
jenny chou Me too 💕

Crystal Hardison I love the song too

His new daughter...
You mean his son
This song is very powerful. Especially when it happened to you. Happened to me my whole life growing up and even still when I was 40. Was afraid to tell anybody cuz the guy that did it to me was my moms husband. He told me that if o ever told anybody, that he would laugh in my face cuz he has family in the police dept. Wtf?

Thanks for taking the time to tell me that, Helene. My life is so much more meaningful knowing about connections like this. Thank you.

Same here like I stop to look for this song 🎵the best
there are people who are crying and who are lying.
Yea…me; and I’ve never claimed to be anything except a girl and a tomboy…
At over sixty years old myself, this song and MILCK's voice both haunts me and brings me to tears. There is nothing more powerful than a voice. When voices come together the strength becomes evident and undeniable. Keep speaking! Keep telling! Keep sharing!

Still makes me cry. You have NO idea the old wounds this song touches.
fran williamson I'm so sorry there was a wound to begin with...#neveragain
I do my sister. You are not alone. A survivor too.
HUGE Hugzzzz❣❣🤗🤗 I know exactly how it feels!! 😭😭💔💔
Came here from the pop documentary. This song is healing something very broken in me that I can't quite articulate yet. Thank you so much.
When the dad accepted his daughter and twirled her I cried
Allie Parker I cringe a little
Son*
Allie Parker we all crave acceptance…… maybe that’s all that we all really need to heal…………
I FELT THAT
MaybeMeep :3 this made me ball cuz I can relate to this situation, sort of at least
Aaaamazing voice and I like how she peaks during the third part of the song and not too early
Even after 30 + years, I needed this song! Thank you for helping me realize I'm still hurting. I always thought it was my fault. I know I've been damaged ever since.

My oldest just came out & is still not ready to come out to the whole family yet. I am going to show this to them. I think they will love it.
The news made me think of this song again and think how much we will need it again. I'm so sorry that we do.
I hope one day we build a society that will leave this song rendered completely confusing and irrelevant. Until then... thanks for listening, and hope it brings strength. Much love.

"A one-woman riot" is what got me. damn.
Letting the tears fall. This song carries such an inspiring and powerful message. I AM CHANGED.
every generation gets one and Milck is that special Estrella guiding this one;
you simply run out of breath trying to keep up with her strength and timeless truths that make it hard for any father not to shed a tear wishing for the best life for all daughters everywhere..and the wisdom of their sons to guard and celebrate those lives;
Such a powerful anthem. Never heard about the artist but she seems very extraordinary.
This song and music is exactly what the world needs right now. I crave for music like this . Thank you to all involved in this wonderful powerful song & video 👍
Irish1Ellen I'm so sick and tired of most rappers talking drugs in a bad way, cars, money, being so gangsta, getting girls etc. You know all that stereotypical crap rappers rap about
Irish1Ellen but rapping about girls personalities is so much better than rapping about their genitals. I'm glad there's still good music today

Irish1Ellen me too ! GOD BLESS! Rachel Cole
Irish1Ellen so do I, I can't get enough of this type of music, I love it so much ! Rachel Cole not Kenneth Cole
Came from “This is pop” Documentary ..I’m from Thailand and love your song , your voice so much
I have been trying to speak loudly for 82 years. So glad to see and hear this.
It's time!
I saw you perform this song at the Women's March. It was life changing for me, I just didn't know it at the time. This song & you have been a source of strength to me in dark times. Thank you.
This song is timeless. Appropriate in any year at any age. Its powerful and meaningful.
Put on your face
Know your place
Shut up and smile
Don't spread your legs
I could do that
But no one knows me no one ever will
If I don't say something, if I just lie still
Would I be that monster, scare them all away
If I let them hear what I have to say
I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh
I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh
A one woman riot, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I can't keep quiet
For anyone
Anymore
Cuz no one knows me no one ever will
If I don't say something, take that dry blue pill
They may see that monster, they may run away
But I have to do this
I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh
I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh
A one woman riot, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh I can't keep quiet
Let it out, let it out now
Let it out now
There'll be someone who understands
Let it out, let it out now
Let it out now
Must be someone who'll understand
Let it out, let it out now
Let it out now
There'll be someone who understands
Let it out, let it out now
Let it out now
I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh
Let it out, let it out now
Let it out now
I can't keep quiet, no oh oh oh oh oh oh
Let it out, let it out now
Let it out now
I can't keep quiet
No, I won't keep quiet
I ain't Brooklyn :D I still don’t get why you had to write the full song ???
Priyanka Kale I think is so that if someone wanted to see the lyrics they wouldn’t have to look them up, but idk just a guess
well, they are in the description... 8D
Moon Watcher oh I didn’t know that lol 😆 welp there go’s my reasonable explanation!
well maybe Madonna didn't know that it was there XD

I'm glad you're here in perfect timing. Better late than never, and I'm sending you so so so much love. Thank you for sharing your story here. I'm sure it will help many others.
Just know (this internet stranger) believes in you. You are worth it!
Thanks Cloak and dagger!
I am 19 and a victim of human trafficking and this THIS IS SO POWERFUL!!!
such a beautiful song...
Such a powerful anthem. Never heard about the artist but she seems very extraordinary.
Yes, this is what is needed. We need to be heard. The time has come. WOMEN Arise! Just listened MILCK's interview with Tree Sisters, beautiful!
Where can I find that interview Hun? Thanx in advance❣🤗🤗
Such an inspiration. I needed to see this video today. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
This song fits the movie Fresh Kills so well. Especially due to Rose's story arch. At one point her aunt tells her she wasn't quiet because she was shy, but she had too much to say.

Heartbreaking movie, but worth a watch if you get a chance. Ya don't often see mob movies from the females' perspectives.
6 years later and I'm crying . . . This is just such a powerful song.
I was always quite. I still am. And I've been asked to stay quiet. To keep my family together I still am. But it hurts me every moment of my existence as expected. I don't think I'll ever truly speak up in this life, but I'm glad this song exists because it calms the hurt. It lets me speak out in my head atleast. So thank you so much for unintentionally being a voice for me and many others 💜
I hope with time and support, you can find your voice. I was molested as a child in the 60's. My parents knew but it was kept hidden. I was so young I didn't recall the incident until 25 years later. I wasn't even sure if it had happened. I asked my mother and she confirmed that it had and apologized for how it was handled. She too had been sexually assaulted as a child.
Times change and so can we.
I performed at UMASS Amherst choral festival and we did an arrangement of this song and it's sooo powerful - I still love this!!
I've been performing burlesque to your songs for about 6 years now, both pieces are very meaningful for me. I hadn't watched this video yet and it added yet another layer to this song's significance to me. Thank you so much
The song from the womens march!! Ill never forget that day!! Thank you so much, this is a blessing x
just discovered your song on the Netflix series What is Pop - so powerful
Same here 👍🏻
What an incredible song by Milck!!! Love it and it fitted so beautifully in the end credits of the movie, 'The Girl From Mogadishu'. 💕💕💕💕
I heared your song today first Time..you make beautiful songs🤗
And back to listening to this on repeat
Sending you love
This video gets me every time. Parents who love their child and support her identity and a girl who struggles with sexual assault finding her voice... it’s incredibly beautiful!
Made me burst into tears when her clearly disapproving father went to spin her.. powerful song.
i just seen the video, it was great seeing dad except her and hold her hand and spin around. mad me cry. i am going to down load the song my self also and by the album or CD
thank you so much for this song ... you don't know the impact of this song along with the scene in bold type has made x
Im in physical therapy at the moment. My girlfriend left me 2 weeks into my injury, I came onto this song today....
The hardest thing I find is to talk to people no matter how close they are to me because they would run away if I did say something. Everytime I think I've got someone that won't leave and I open up then they do.
I hate that things are happening right now that make me cry that I cant even stop even though I try so damn hard.
This song hit me hard....
such a beautiful song...
And nice visuals and reminds me of that 1-800 song by logic

Excited to see you in Jamaica at the end of the month!! 🇯🇲🍍
I hear Cannon in D. But, most popular songs use the same chord. I still like the song though.
목소리부터 해서 가사까지 너무 좋아요ㅠㅠㅠ
OMG. LOVE THIS! I can’t keep quiet either because I’m a singer and have a big freaking mouth. LOL! Singing is a gift,
I loved this song when I first heard it. Couldn't find the details until watching "This Changes Everything" documentary which credited it in the captions. Grateful to have the details now. Very good song. Solid message.
That was excellent. That voice, fantastic, your voice is Sue Medley fantastic.
The view brought me here.. your voice is beautiful!! ✌🏼💗😊
So great to meet you after you saw me and Natasha on The View! Thanks for coming by to say hi. Hope you enjoy the other music. :)
Holy sh*t!! I bet you're reading this and thinking, "im so sick of the music these days i wish their was a new artist I could get hooked on". Well THERE IS! Me. Thumbs this up so people can see my music.
This is the only thing getting me through my assault right now
Just finding this song after getting away from my own abuser, such a beautiful voice you have
Why should we? I wouldn't do it for my dad to pretend our lives behind closed doors were great. What a better person to sing this than somebody so sweetly talented and beautiful.
Just heard this for the first time watching the documentary "This Changes Everything." Listening to it, while watching all the women's marches completely moved me!
this amazing u r word at every powerful this ENCOURAGES girls to SPEAK UP and don't keep QUIET and shut people out to be the STRONGEST u can be for the next girl in those Situations to be BRAVE
To this day, even after years, this song still gives me chills and makes me almost cry. It is such a powerful song and it is still hitting me hard.
I completely agree with the words, it was one of the most beautiful and heartbreaking songs I’ve ever heard. Respect for MILCK (singing) and all those women going through that right now.
I am so glad artists like you exist.
I saw a sponsored ad for this song on Instagram and it got stuck in my head while I was at school. So when I got home I saw the ad again and I had to check it out. I'm glad I did.
Just heard this in the finale episode of "The bold type".. cried like crazy. It's the perfect song for the scene it is used in ♥
I cry everytime i listen to this song ,this song means so much to me ,i can relate a lot to this song♥
Edit:I'm coming back to this song 3 years later and it still means so much to me 💞
oh my gosh I think you'e amazing. I Saw you at Eleven Eleven and really touched me with your voice and important message. I wish you huge success. You message in "Quiet" is such an important one right now. Bless you.

You're not the ONLY one 😍❤. It's such a beautiful song with an amazing/powerful message. Sorry for self-promoting but I've posted an animated lyric video....I believe the background expresses this song just perfectly. I've put a lot of effort into making it. If you would kindly take the time it would really mean the world to me ❤. I hope i won't disappoint you.

AzaKz Thanks for visiting, and so grateful for your comment!
I feel such deep gratitude for your work here, Milck - such a loving service to all of humankind, especially wombyn.
I swear shes the Queen😍 she is so beautiful and her voice... her voice makes me wonna cry😢❤❤❤
Eu sofri abuso quando tinha 8 anos de um vizinho amigo do meu padrasto, que vivia dentro de casa. Todos confiavam nele inclusive minha mãe, que me deixou sozinha com ele várias vezes. Eu relatei os abusos a minha mãe que nunca acreditou em mim, dizia que eu fantasiava muito. Minhas casa nunca foi um lar de compreensão e conversa.Eu sempre me senti culpada, sempre me retrai pq sentia q de alguma forma eu tinha atraído o olhar dele sei lá, eu era uma criança muito alegre, amorosa, gentil com todos, mesmo não tendo muitas alegrias em casa eu sempre estava sorrindo. Eu senti a vida inteira q de alguma forma isso poderia ter dado a ele um sensação de liberdade comigo. Mas eu tinha oito anos, oito!
i was 6 to 11 when it happend im 11 now but he is in jail and im still haunted by this my own brother my other brother saved me
Thank you thank you thank you. Sooo many of us need this song. The trauma is taking over my life. This song comforts me.
I know you probably will not see my comment, but I still want to say that you inspire me. Your music is so powerful, and I feel even more driven to help others and take action. Thank you so much for everything :)
This song and video is everything. Strong, courageous, soft, vulnerable, honest, painful, beautiful. I can't help but cry every time. #MeToo
Thank you, Michelle, for sharing with me your story, too. Together we are healing and rising up!
The best thing happening in the world today is people who have been silenced for too long have had enough and are finally finding allies in the empowered community willing to stand next to them. It is past time that we all stand up and demand that all people are treated with compassion and decency.
Something I want to say to my 15 year old self
I want to tell you... it wasn't your fault so stop blaming yourself..., neither was it mom's or dad's for leaving you in his house. It is going to be tough but it doesn't hurt after sometime, maybe sometimes it does and you get a burst of emotions. You turn numb, so try to be cheerful. Don't hurt yourself cause that shit takes time to heal. Don't waste 5 years of your life holding back your tears and crying in silence. Don't get hurt when your parents blame you...... it's just who they are. You are alone but you always have me.
this song is full of Emotion and Passion. really touching I love it. It should get more attention
I've been listening to this on repeat this past weekend. Dr Ford, I believe you.
Great Song and GREAT Video! Just discovered you, Your AMAZING!
Thank you again, Tam! Sending love to you
Please come up with a song for the kids in Parkland, Florida. They need a great theme song like this! You are awesome!
A Girl From Mogadishu brought me to this song. This song has Power & Truth. In so mamy ways. * crooked attorneys.* Proof is viable. This will be challenging- I Won't Be Quiet. I Won't be afraid! Thank you! This song was confirmation for me!
i heard this on cloak and dagger and i immediately fell in love with this song, i think everyone should hear this
This just broke my heart in so many pieces. 😢
