This is Me

From the Greatest Showman

I am not a stranger

to the dark

Hide away, they say

'Cause we don't want

your broken parts

I've learned to be ashamed

of all my scars

Run away, they say

No one'll love you

as you are

But, I won't let them

break me down to dust

I know that there's

a place for us

For we are glorious

When the sharpest words

wanna cut me down

I'm gonna send a flood,

gonna drown 'em out

I am brave, I am bruised

I am who I'm meant to be,

this is me

Look out 'cause here I come

And I'm marching on

to the beat I drum

I'm not scared to be seen

I make no apologies,

this is me

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh-oh-oh-oh

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, (oh-oh-oh),

(oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)

Another round of bullets

hits my skin

Well, fire away 'cause today,

I won't let the shame sink in

We are bursting through

the barricades and

Reaching for the sun

(we are warriors)

Yeah, that's what

we've become

(yeah, that's what we've become)

I won't let them

break me down to dust

I know that there's

a place for us

For we are glorious

When the sharpest words

wanna cut me down

I'm gonna send a flood,

gonna drown 'em out

I am brave, I am bruised

I am who I'm meant to be,

this is me

Look out 'cause

here I come

And I'm marching on

to the beat I drum

I'm not scared to be seen

I make no apologies,

this is me

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh-oh-oh-oh

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, (oh-oh-oh),

(oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)

This is me

(oh-oh-oh-oh)

And I know that I

deserve your love

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

There's nothing I'm not

worthy of

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh),

(oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)

When the sharpest words

wanna cut me down

I'm gonna send a flood,

gonna drown 'em out

This is brave,

this is bruised

This is who

I'm meant to be,

this is me

Look out '

cause here I come

And I'm marching on

to the beat I drum

I'm not scared to be seen

I make no apologies,

this is me

(Ohh oh oh, ohh)

I’m gonna send a flood

(Ohh oh oh, ohh)

Gonna drown them out

This is me
