Here I Stand (feat. Jessica McCall)

Everybody has a story What you see and what you know are worlds apart we Define a person by whatever we hear Like it's fact But the fact is it's never really what it seems now Can we drop the act please Cuz it's truly sad Like you're perfect please You know you gotta past And I see passed these Fake smiles and laughs Come on Just to keep the people happy Posts of a fun night Like that's your whole life On your timeline But all you post are the highlights Like you ain't got bills to pay Or the pain of being betrayed By the one person you thought you could tell everything Yeah that's real But we don't talk about how that feels Log Kya Kahenge What will they think Too concerned about if they like you Despite who Really does Follow me I'll follow you Here I stand Embracin' my flaws The good and the bad I'm proud of it all I will not back down I will not give in No matter how they try to hurt me Here I stand Embracin' my flaws The good and the bad I'm proud of it all I will not back down I will not give in No matter how they try to hurt me Here I stand Judge if you want Like my Regrets aren't enough As I Listen intently They say the most But they've never met me They don't know The pain that I carry Got my heart on my sleeve Yeah my scars might be scary But in me I believe Cuz I'm seein' people all around me doubt me Talk about me Sittin' across the table I stay silent That's when I'm the loudest Your past does not define you Let me remind you Whatever's behind you Can only confine you if you let it See you and I are not so different Erase the color of our skin You'll be surprised the things we deal with Though it may not seem Our worlds are one They're interweaved So drop the hate and trust in me I'll trust in you Together we'll create a better place to be Cuz looks can be deceiving The title's misleading So look a little deeper You might like what you read if You open up your heart and mind Put the pieces together and give it time Now give it time Here I stand Embracin' my flaws The good and the bad I'm proud of it all I will not back down I will not give in No matter how they try to hurt me Here I stand Embracin' my flaws (Embracin' my flaws) The good and the bad I'm proud of it all I will not back down I will not give in No matter how they try to hurt me Here I stand Here I stand Here I stand
