I′m not a stranger to the dark

Hide away, they say

'Cause we don′t want your broken partsI've learned to be ashamed of all my scars

Run away, they say

No one will 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

Another round of bullets hits my skin

But 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

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

Gonna stand the 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

Whoa

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down

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

Yeah this is brave, this is bruised

This is who I′m meant to be

This is me

Oh 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

Whoa

This is me
