This Is Who I Am

A million colors paint the world

But you don't see them

Like I see them

A picture worth a thousand words

But you don't hear them

Are you listenin'?

I've been singing out, screaming loud

Shoutin' for so long

This is who I am

It's where I stand

I won't apologize

This is why I'm free

Now I believe

I will not compromise

This is who I am

A sea of faces all around

I see you sinkin'

I see you drownin'

But I won't let you pull me down

As I'm reachin' for deeper meaning

Oh, I've been searchin' for that somethin'

But I've know it all along

This is who I am

It's where I stand

I won't apologize

This is why I'm free

Now I believe

I will not compromise

This is who I am

This is who I am

The captive who has been set free

The truth if only you'd believe

This is who I am

It's where I stand

I won't apologize

This is why I'm free

Now I believe

I will not compromise

This is who I am

It's where I stand

I won't apologize

This is why I'm free

Now I believe

I will not compromise

This is who I am

Whoa oh, whoa oh

I won't apologize

This is who I am

Whoa oh, whoa oh

I will not compromise

This is who I am
