Difference is Okay

I can't help it

Born to be different

Stuck with these issues

I can't change them

Why do I hate them

Focused on breaking

I can't think

They're pulling me down

They're pulling me under

Do they think I'm done

I can't even swim

Do they think I'm broken

I haven't malfunctioned

They pulled me down, and

Down and down I'll descend

But I'll get up again

Get me out of here, I don't belong

Got help to carry me out of it, out of it

Is there a glitch in the system?

Was I meant to be this way?

Now the rain clouds are floating away

They can't wipe me out

I feel I'm shining proud

They can't bring me down

So let me tell you now

Difference is okay

Clean the thoughts out of my mind

But why?

Difference is okay

They don't want the things I got to say

Difference is okay

I'm sick of hearing: cut those feelings

Difference is okay

It's just a minor part of moving on my way

I'm on the path to

Figuring out

Just who I'll become

You think it's rebellion

But there is no quelling

I've only begun

Others will mask

What they're feeling inside

And they haven't a clue

So just let it all out

And shout it with pride

Do you wanna be you?

I wanna be me, so

Get me out of here I don't belong, just

Get me out of here I'm alright

I don't need help, I'm carrying on

I'm carrying on, carrying on

This could be the strength that sets me free

'Cause now I hold the key

What you get is what you see

'Cause this is how I'm meant to be

Difference is okay

Don't try to change it, know you'll make it
