Grey day make me

Lose the sense of colour

Voices everywhere

And they're outside my head

Who decided I am not a valid kinda human?

I'm left loose here

Don't know what happens next

Have you ever listened to our stories?

Did you ever notice

Flying bullets that we're dodging?

And anywhere I fear

The target's set on me

Well, I'm strong

And I breathe

For I know that one day

We will be paid respects

And my feet

On the ground

When our arms are all held

We will be the scaffold for the rest

So we're climbing

We're rising

To scream our name

Our freedom is

Everyone else's

We're bursting in colour

We'll fly away

Above this life

Beyond this capsule

Underground the ones

Who made the noise to be heard by you

You didn't understand

We're free and everywhere

Underground the ones

Who lived their lives on their own terms

And showed us other ways

To be content themselves

You want a world where you can

Hide us underground like a rug

'Cause we're a threat to what?

Oh, we're just full of filth

What is so wrong we must erase?

What is the harm that we did?

Is it fair to your kids

To not be learning dignity?

You're busy taking care of

Abstract nations rather than all

The people living inside

With all the needs we fight for

Four years later we're back

To tiptoeing on the rope

Will you neglect us to death?

Just like a sociopath

Well, I'm strong

And I breathe

For I know that one day

We will be paid respects

Yeah, my feet

On the ground

When our arms are all held

We will be the scaffold for the rest

So we're climbing

We're rising

To scream our name

Our freedom is

Everyone else's

We've built our own culture

We'll fly away

Above this life

Beyond this capsule

If you could get inside my skin

Connect to all there is

We'd need respect and care

If we're all different

What's the big deal?

We're not all born the same

Yet we deserve to make it till the end

If you don't shoo my fears away

I guess that means

You're part of them

Well, I'm strong (strong)

And I breathe (breathe)

For I know that one day

We will be paid respects

Yeah, my feet

On the ground

When our arms are all held

We will be the scaffold for the rest

So we're climbing

We're rising

To scream our name

Our freedom is

Everyone else's

We've built our own culture

We'll fly away

Above this life
