Who We Are

Lyrics

This is who we are
This is what I am
We have nowhere else to go
Divided we will stand
This is who we are
This is what I am
We have nowhere else to go
Divided we will stand

We are the ugly, beaten and torn
Brooding with power and ready for more
We are the hungry, sick of this world
Of robbers, of thieving, of vultures unfurled
We have been left on our own
Be all the lost, longing for home
We are the unwanted lives
Strung out and angry, the deprived
We are the young and young at heart
Strong and the brave that are destined to start
We are the change, world needs to see
Look in our eyes and see our belief

Lyrics continue below...

This is who we are (this is who we are)
This is what I am (this is what I am)
We have nowhere else to go
Divided we will stand

We are the broken, meant to be left
Damaged and headless like dolls in a chest
We are the future seeds that you've sown
In dirt that won't ever grow may turn to stone
We have been hung out to dry
We are the drunken, we are the high
We despise this human race
Look in our eyes and see your disgrace

This is who we are (this is who we are)
This is what I am (this is what I am)
We have nowhere else to go
Divided we will stand

Dream, dream
Into glory we will ride
Be unbridled in determination, burn the seasons
Into glory we will ride
Be unbridled in determination, burn the seasons

We are the savage, meant to be brought
To justice, to be thrown in jail, left to rot
We are the other American dream
Whose characters fight for their lives and they scream
We have been left disavowed
Those of the black not of the shroud
We won't hear religious lies
Their god has left us to die

This is who we are (this is who we are)
This is what I am (this is what I am)
We have nowhere else to go
Divided we will stand
This is who we are (this is who we are)
This is what I am (this is what I am)
We have nowhere else to go
Divided we will stand
