We Are Who We Are

9'oclock sharp that was the time I kept looking at my watch, kept looking behind You see It's getting late & it's dark outside I'm just tryna watch my back while staying alive I know, this isn't the place for someone like me I've gotta hurry up & get myself out of these streets Because these streets can sometimes be mean Filled with drugs, sex, violence & fatality Then I looked out the corner of my eye Saw a group of guys coming up from behind I took off, I'm running for my life I tripped up, closed my eyes and I started to cry I woke up & all I see Are a whole bunch of doctors starring down at me Saying, I don't what he's been through But I'm praying to god he finds the strength to make through Beat up & knocked down Got made fun of & pushed around Laughed at, abused All for someones amuse We're different, so what? That's how the lord made us We're unique & happy We Are Who We Are December 12th, yep that was the day I was chilling with my friends, out loving the day When a, guy came on up to me We started talking bout things like poetry Then we, walked off amongst ourselves To have a little quiet time for ourselves When we, started crossing a baseball team And they all started yelling out vulgar things Like You fucking faggots get the hell up outta here You're not welcome, just go, you fucking queers That's when we realized That this is not the place and not the time So we, grabbed our stuff and went away We'll save the beating for another day Beat up & knocked down Got made fun of & pushed around Laughed at, abused All for someones amuse We're different, so what? That's how the lord made us We're unique & happy We Are Who We Are Hey you, with your head held high well I bet it feels good since you made them cry You're so tough & your confident Making everyone else feel like they're shit Well, I hope you know that you got em good We can see it very clear, that's understood But, it's not the end, we'll get back up And we will fight for our rights until we all bleed blood Beat up & knocked down Got made fun of & pushed around Laughed at, abused All for someones amuse We're different, so what? That's how the lord made us We're unique & happy We Are Who We Are
