Black Sheep

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Black sheep, cryin' those rebel tears It's a battle to survive these lonely years Black sheep, you live up to your name You've been told for way too long that you're the one to blame [Pre-Chorus] You never mean to hurt yourself or anyone around you But trouble's like a curse, a curse you didn't choose The house you're in is like a cage, the walls are full o' rage It's hard to breathe, but hard to leave [Chorus] (Oh) Look up, you're not alone (Oh), you'll make a home of your own (Oh) Don't let anyone turn your unique into flaws (Oh) Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are (Oh) Take those sticks and stones (Oh) and make a home of your own (Oh) Every warrior grows from her battles and scars (Oh) Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are [Post-Chorus] Black sheep, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Dear black sheep, oh-ooh-ooh, ooh [Verse 2] It runs deep, it's insatiable That hunger to be seen and to be understood Black sheep, they call me that, too I've wrestled with the dark, but I made it through And so will you [Chorus] (Oh) Look up, you're not alone (Oh), you'll make a home of your own (Oh) Don't let anyone turn your unique into flaws (Oh) Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are Take those sticks and stones (Oh) and make a home of your own (Oh) Every warrior grows from her battles and scars (Oh) Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are [Post-Chorus] Black sheep, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, yeah Dear black sheep, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh [Pre-Chorus] The house you build, it will be safe and be full o' light and space You'll finally breathe, my dear black sheep [Chorus] Look up, you're not alone, you'll make a home of your own (Ooh) don't let anyone turn your unique into flaws Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are Take those sticks and stones (Sticks and stones) And make a home of your own (All of your own) Every warrior grows from her battles and scars And you know that I love you the way that you are (Ooh) [Outro] And you know that I love you the way that you are (Black sheep, ooh) And you know that I love you the way that you are Ooh-ooh, black sheep
