A/N: I know I know, it's from a remake, and they haven't been... well received, but I actually liked this song, it's amazing, and I'm a big fan of Lemonade mouth, which is a movie that this singer was in, when she was younger. I highly recommend it, its got amazing music, characters, and a great plot. This one might also be shorter than the others. Also I made a character up, she'll be related to someone, you just need to figure out who?

Keith's POV: 

I was sitting in the audience, at a fundraiser for raising money, to rebuild damaged buildings during the attack, that the Galra did on Earth. We were having a concert, and the Paladins were asked to sing, I can't sing really well... but I agreed nonetheless, as did the others. 

Pidge was the first to go, and she walked out in a long dress, that started out Green, and then started to fade, into a Red color, it looked pretty cool actually, she also had a Red necklace, with white shoes, that had a slight heel to it. She looked so pretty, she always was, but this enhanced it somehow.

Here comes a wave
Meant to wash me away
A tide that is taking me under
Swallowing sand
Left with nothing to say
My voice drowned out in the thunder

But I won't cry
And I won't start to crumble
Whenever they try
To shut me or cut me down

Something about those lyrics, and the way she sang, made me feel proud. Looking at the others, I knew they felt the same.

I won't be silenced
You can't keep me quiet
Won't tremble when you try it
All I know is I won't go speechless

'Cause I'll breathe
When they try to suffocate me
Don't you underestimate me
'Cause I know that I won't go speechless

Lance, who was on the right of me, leaned over and whispered, "Since when could Pidge sing, or am I missing something," I shrugged, "Your asking me like I know, I'm just as surprised as you."

Written in stone
Every rule, every word
Centuries old and unbending
Stay in your place
Better seen and not heard
But now that story is ending

I'm gonna get whoever told her that...

'Cause I
I cannot start to crumble
So come on and try
Try to shut me and cut me down

I won't be silenced
You can't keep me quiet
Won't tremble when you try it
All I know is I won't go speechless
Speechless

Let the storm in
I cannot be broken
No, I won't live unspoken
'Cause I know that I won't go speechless

Try to lock me in this cage
I won't just lay me down and die
I will take these broken wings
And watch me burn across the sky
Hear the echoes saying I

Who put her in a cage?! AND WHY DIDN'T SHE SAY SOMETHING?! I looked at the others, who had the same, "Who the Quiznack," face.

Won't be silenced
Though you want to see me tremble when you try it
All I know is I won't go speechless
Speechless

'Cause I'll breathe
When they try to suffocate me
Don't you underestimate me
'Cause I know that I won't go speechless
All I know is I won't go speechless
Speechless

She finished, and everyone gave her a standing ovation. She looked in our direction, and gave us a peace sign ✌🏻.

Then I heard a voice I didn't know say something, but I couldn't pick it up over the cheering, just bits and pieces. But putting it together it was something along the lines of, "Didn't sound that great, it could've been better," I turned my head, and was met with an unfamiliar face.
