This is Me

Justin Paul & Benj Pasek

Lyrics

Vertical Divider
I am 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'll 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 '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 marching on to the beat I drum I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me

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


​Another round of bullets hits my skin
Well, 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 (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 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 marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me


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
​This is me


And I know that I deserve your love
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) There's nothing I'm not worthy of (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
This is brave, this is bruised
This is who I'm meant to be, this is me


Look out 'cause here I come
(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


When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
​This is me
