I've been running near and far
Covered in blisters and scars
Oh no, for too long
Locked away behind these doors
I am crawling on the floor
Am I strong? This feels wrong
And then no one's ever told me
Why people care who holds me
Oh so do you?
And can you be the power
Blooming in me like a flower
In Spring, be my wings
I wish I knew
What I take away from you
I can't and i won't
Let you walk all over me
You make no sense
When you excuse your ignorance
So, don't you ever try and silence me
With your bigotry
Every day I have to lie
And it's hard to feel alive
When I'm my own crime
But I am human, can't you see?
There's no justifying me
Cause I am what I am
I can't believe I still need to say
We are still waiting for the day
When everybody gets a place in the sun
Your daughter and your son
I can't believe that we still look for love
Answers from somebody up above
When all we need is to say it loud
I'm human and I'm proud
I wish I knew
What I take away from you
I can't and i won't
Let you walk all over me
You make no sense
When you excuse your ignorance
So, don't you ever try and silence me
With your bigotry
What do i know about your trouble, you've got my heart
But you are real, this is your struggle, you've got my arms
