This Is Me

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

Another round of bullets hits my skin

Hey

Well go 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

Hey hey hey

I'm gonna send a flood gonna drown them out hey hey hey

I am brave I am bruised

I am who I'm meant to be this is me

Look out 'cause here I come

Look out 'cause here I come

And I'm marching on to the beat I drum

I drum I drum

I'm not scared to be seen

I make no apologies this is me

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down

I'm gonna send a flood gonna drown them out

I'm gonna send a flood

Gonna drown them out

Oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh

This is me
