This Is Who I Am

(album: A Messenger - 2013)

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
Shouting 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 sinking
I see you drowning
But I won't let you pull me down
As I'm reaching for deeper meaning

Oh, I've been searching for that something
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
I'm the blind man given eyes to see
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
