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 them 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
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
Gonna send a flood, gonna drown them 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
When the sharpest words
wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood,
gonna drown them out
This is brave, this is proof
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
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
