Lyrics

[00:00.55] I am not a stranger to the dark
[00:04.99] Hide away, they say
[00:07.52] 'Cause we don't want your broken parts
[00:13.84] You can put your mind to do whatever you wanna do
[00:16.98] Just tell yourself that you capable, too
[00:19.85] But don't do things that ain't even cool
[00:22.23] And get rid of them no-good friends that's enabling you
[00:25.43] Making you feel like you won't be nothin', your life crumbling
[00:28.38] They talk, mumbling
[00:29.45] You gon' be something, you're glorious
[00:32.16] We're no gangs, but warriors, we well-known, notorious
[00:35.67] They can't stop you or block you or mock you
[00:38.32] They mad 'cause you bad and they not you
[00:40.71] You fall down, but get up and skip and hop through
[00:43.31] Kick down doors for others to walk through
[00:46.34] You have a purpose, to make you say: "Did I do that?" Urkel
[00:51.66] Now we calling reality virtual
[00:54.62] This is who I am, this is me, don't let them words hurt you
[00:58.72] When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
[01:03.63] I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
[01:08.31] I am brave, I am bruised
[01:10.97] I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
[01:14.72] Look out 'cause here I come
[01:18.94] And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
[01:23.53] I'm not scared to be seen
[01:26.08] I make no apologies, this is me
[01:29.45] Oh-oh-oh-oh
[01:34.49] Oh-oh-oh-oh
[01:39.74] Oh-oh-oh-oh
[01:40.99] Oh-oh-oh-oh
[01:41.37] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[01:42.88] Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
[01:44.38] Another round of bullets hits my skin
[01:48.30] Well, fire away 'cause today, I won't let the shame sink in
[01:54.03] We are bursting through the barricades
[01:56.77] And reaching for the sun (we are warriors)
[02:00.46] Yeah, that's what we've become
[02:04.16] (Yeah, that's what we've become)
[02:04.51] I won't let them break me down to dust
[02:07.24] I know that there's a place for us
[02:10.42] For we are glorious
[02:14.17] When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
[02:18.91] I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
[02:23.45] I am brave, I am bruised
[02:25.99] I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
[02:29.64] Look out 'cause here I come (yeah, yeah, yeah)
[02:33.99] And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
[02:38.45] I'm not scared to be seen
[02:40.97] I make no apologies, this is me
[02:44.11] I'm alone, I never fit the mold
[02:46.28] The world is so cold, hold it down on my own
[02:48.87] I'm just tryna reach up to the sky, see the moon
[02:51.39] I got confidence 'cause I'm the flyest in the room
[02:53.51] And I been knocked down, but I always get up
[02:56.10] I had some fake friends, had to go and switch up
[02:58.82] Yeah, no pain, no strain, I ain't chasing all the pain
[03:01.69] 'Cause I got more to gain, and I'm just tryna make a change
[03:04.46] I'm just doing me, I'm in my own lane
[03:06.52] I fell down a few times, but I'm up again
[03:09.03] Marching to another drum, see me cross, see me bow
[03:11.65] When they thought that I was done, nah, nah, here I come
[03:14.70] I'm not weak, I get on my feet
[03:17.11] No apologies, yeah, this is me
[03:21.64] And I know that I deserve your love
[03:26.70] There's nothing I'm not worthy of
[03:34.14] When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
[03:39.02] I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
[03:43.47] This is brave, this is bruised
[03:46.01] This is who I'm meant to be, this is me
[03:50.63] Look out 'cause here I come ('cause here I come)
[03:52.52] And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
[03:57.43] (Marching on, marching, marching on to you)
[04:01.81] I'm not scared to be seen
[04:02.44] I make no apologies, this is me
[04:06.78] Whenever the world's gone, whenever the world's gone
[04:11.70] I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
[04:15.88] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh this is me
[04:20.75]
