Lyrics

[Intro: Kesha] I am not a stranger to the dark "Hide away," they say "'Cause we don't want your broken parts" [Verse 1: Missy Elliott] You can put your mind to do whatever you wanna do Just tell yourself that you capable, too But don't do things that ain't even cool And get rid of them no-good friends that's enablin' you Makin' you feel like you won't be nothin', your life crumblin' They talk, mumblin' You gon' be something, you're glorious We're no gangs, but warriors, we well-known, notorious They can't stop you or block you or mock you They mad 'cause you bad and they not you You fall down, but get up and skip and hop through Kick down doors for others to walk through You have a purpose, to make you say, "Did I do that?" Urkel Now we callin' reality virtual This is who I am, this is me, don't let them words hurt you [Chorus: Kesha & Keala Settle] When the sharpest words wanna cut me down I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em 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 marchin' on to the beat I drum I'm not scared to be seen I make no apologies, this is me [Post-Chorus: Kesha & Keala Settle, Keala Settle] Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh) Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh) Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh [Verse 2: Keala Settle & Kesha] Another round of bullets hits my skin Well, fire away 'cause today I won't let the shame sink in We are burstin' through the barricades And reachin' for the sun (We are warriors) Yeah, that's what we've become (Yeah, that's what we've become) [Pre-Chorus: Kesha & Keala Settle, Keala Settle] I won't let them break me down to dust I know that there's a place for us For we are glorious [Chorus: Kesha & Keala Settle, Missy Elliott] When the sharpest words wanna cut me down I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out I am brave, I am bruised I am who I'm meant to be, this is me Look out 'cause here I come (Yeah, yeah, yeah) And I'm marchin' on to the beat I drum I'm not scared to be seen I make no apologies, this is me [Verse 3: Missy Elliott] I'm alone, I never fit the mold The world is so cold, hold it down on my own I'm just tryna reach up to the sky, see the moon I got confidence 'cause I'm the flyest in the room And I been knocked down, but I always get up I had some fake friends, had to go and switch up Yeah, no pain, no strain, I ain't chasin' all the pain 'Cause I got more to gain, and I'm just tryna make a change I'm just doin' me, I'm in my own lane I fell down a few times, but I'm up again Marchin' to another drum, see me crawl, see me run When they thought that I was done, no, I'm not, here I come I'm not weak, I get on my feet No apologies, yeah, this is me [Bridge: Kesha, Keala Settle & Missy Elliott] (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh) And I know that I deserve your love (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh) There's nothin' I'm not worthy of (Uh, yeah, yeah) (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh) [Chorus: Kesha, Keala Settle, Both, Missy Elliott] When the sharpest words wanna cut me down I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out This is brave, this is bruised This is who I'm meant to be, this is me Look out 'cause here I come ('Cause here I come) And I'm marchin' on to the beat I drum (Marchin' on, marchin' on, marchin' on to you) I'm not scared to be seen (Uh, yeah, yeah) I make no apologies, this is me (No apologies, yeah, this is me) [Outro: Kesha, Keala Settle, Both] (Whenever the words wanna cut me down) Whenever the words go (I'll send the flood to drown them out) Whenever the words go I'm gonna send a flood Gonna drown them out, ah (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh) Oh, oh, oh, this is me
