Facade by The Shrekening Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’ve been on the outside looking in
I’ve been living someone else’s life, it seems
I’ve been scared to let the others in
And see what I’ve done and who I’ve been

[Verse 2]
Hiding and waiting for someone to
Do the things I’ve been so afraid to do
Looking for somebody to tell me
The things I always knew but could never see

[Chorus]
That we’re more equal than no one could’ve thought
I don’t have to be what I know I’m not
Years down the road, I’ll say I did my best and fought
Don’t lose hope now, don’t throw away my shot

[Verse 3]
We ought to choose between black and white
Strong or weak, right or wrong, me or them
But I know it’s something that I can fight
Cause deep down I know, I am what I am
[Chorus]
And we’re more equal than no one could’ve thought
I don’t have to be what I know I’m not
Years down the road, I’ll say I did my best and fought
Don’t lose hope now, don’t throw away my shot

[Bridge]
Now I know that all I can do is try to be
I gotta let all the people see
The person who I always needed but never had
I gotta remind people that

[Chorus]
We’re more equal than no one could’ve thought
I don’t have to be what I know I’m not
Years down the road, I’ll say I did my best and fought
Don’t lose hope now, don’t throw away my shot
