Gabriella Cilmi - Don't Tell Me Lyrics






They said,
shes a young and shines thigs way to loud,
she'll be five for five run with the crowd, got me thinking whats this all about

if they'd ask they'd lie, your much to proud,
ya gotta toe the line run with the crowd but what they're trying to say is just as loud

when I stood up tall they cut me down,
pray for me to fall, push me around,
gotta speak my mind, yeh, scream and shout,

ohhh, Don't tell me,
what to do, where to go or what is real,
Don't tell me, who to be, what to think or how to feel,
gotta rise to make a stand,
i gotta fight for who i am,
I won't run or hide, this is me in time,
Don't tell me

Kiss my face goodbye ain't no more doubt,
ain't no need to hide what im all about,
Got me shining, no matter what they say,
you don't like that fine, well thats your choice,
gotta speak my mind, i got a voice,
did you not hear me when i said,

When i stood up tall they cut me down,
pray for me to fall, push me around, gotta speak my mind yeh, scream and shout

[chorus]

Oh, you may fake and you may lie,
to get you where you can,
oh not the change oh no not i,
beat you, to who i am,
You can take, what you like, won't make no
difference now,
Im gonna tell you one last time, im gonna
scream and shout! scream and shout!

[chorus]

don't tell me,
im not listening anymore, no,
don't tell me,
kiss my face goodbye,
dont tell me,
oh what to do, or where to go, or what is real,
don't tell me,
a nananana nooooooo

Gabriella Cilmi Don't Tell Me Comments
  1. M.... D....

    I love this song❣

  2. I.... ....

    Do you have any of her other really hard to find songs like "Magic Carpet Ride" and "Sucker For Love" from Ten?

    I.... ....

    "Magic Carpet Ride" - there's two live performances on YouTube, the recorded version is on the "Defender" single which I own but it's a song I don't like that much. "Sucker For Love" - available on YouTube, don't have this one but it's mediocre anyway. "Fly Me To The Moon" - available on YouTube, own it on the "Save The Lies (Good To Me)" single but not a big fan. "Sad Sad World" - this used to be on YouTube but was unfortunately removed, really good song I wish I had. You should check out my "Gabriella Cilmi + AKAQ" playlist. I think you'll find a lot to enjoy.

    I.... ....

    I've been trying to find the recorded version of "Magic Carpet Ride" for awhile but it's just nowhere online...I guess I'll have to just buy the single. I knew "Sucker For Love" is on YouTube, but I wish the quality was higher. I actually haven't heard the other songs you mentioned so I'll have to look them up. Thanks for sharing all this, she's just an underrated artist that no one talks about :/

    I.... ....

    I just watched the first two videos in that playlist and WOW! It is crazy to see her so young!

    I.... ....

    Update: I manged to find what I was looking for :) now I'm hunting for Sad Sad World

    I.... ....

    I'm a fan because I love her voice but that she always comes across as such a nice person makes me like her that much more. It's a shame she was mismanaged during Ten and in the fallout became an independent artist and not the big star she deserves to be. She's in All Kings And Queens now with her brother Joseph and seems to be enjoying herself which is the most important thing. That "Jumpin' Jack Flash" performance might be the one that got her noticed and signed to a record deal at just 13-years-old.

    fabalous song! Applause for Gabriella!
