I want to be out where the others walk
I know that I'm different
But no one would talk
I've worked so hard to be only me

From the family tree
I know who I am and no longer afraid
To say what I feel
And say it my way
I want to go where they dance all night
I know that you fear

I won't take their poison I'll leave it be
That's not what I'm seeking
I want to feel free
Locked up in my prison protected and fair
It's such a faade
I don't need to be there

Probably won't though
My faith is quite tight
Take me downtown to flow with the sounds
I'm feeling much better
My mind is more sound

Help me accept all that I feel,
Though feeling uncomfortable may I know,
That I strong in Recovery
