This Is Me

I'm 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 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
