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
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
