[Bm] [A] [D]
[Bm]I’m not a stranger [A]to the [D]dark.

I’ve [Bm]learned to be ashamed of [A]all my [D]scars.
Run [G]away, they say. [Bm]
No one will [A]love you as you are.


But [G]I won’t let them break me [A]down to [Bm]dust.
I know that there’s a [A]place for [D]us.
For we are glo[A]rious.


When the [D]sharpest words wanna cut me down.
I’m gonna [Bm]send a flood, gonna drown them out.
I am brave, [G]I am bruised.
I am [A]who I’m meant to be, this is me.
[D]Look out ’cause here I come.
And I’m [Bm]marching on to the beat I drum.
I’m not scared [G]to be seen.

[Bm]Another round of [A]bullets hits my [D]skin.
Well, fire [G]away ’cause to[Bm]day, I won’t [A]let the shame sink in.
We are [Bm]bursting through the barrica[A]des.
And [D]reaching for the sun. (we are [G]warrio[Bm]rs)
Yeah, [A]that’s what we’ll become.


[G]Won’t let them [A]break me [Bm]down to dust.
I know that there’s a [A]place for [D]us.
For we are glo[A]rious.

I’m gonna [Bm]send a flood, gonna drown them out.
I am brave, [G]I am bruised.
I am [A]who I’m meant to be, this is me.

[G]Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, [A]oh oh oh, oh, oh
This is me…


[D]And I know that I deserve [Bm]your love.
[G]There’s nothing I’m not [A]worthy of.
When the [D]sharpest words wanna cut me down.
I’m gonna [Bm]send a flood, gonna drown them out
This is brave, [G]this is bruised.
This is who [A]I’m meant to be, this is me.


[D]Look out ’cause here I come.
(look out ’cause here I come)
And I’m marc[Bm]hing on to the beat I drum.
(marching on, marching, marching on)
I’m not scared [G]to be seen.
I make [A]no apologies, this is me.
