Make Your Own Beat
Fight for the right to be
Exactly who you want to be
Refuse to follow senseless rules
Made to suit the whims of fools
Let the world see who you really are
Let them see your beauty and scars
Make your own beat
Don't take the back seat
Choose friends who respect your views
Shun those ruled by fake news
Close your ears to lies swirling around
Tie your beliefs to trusted sounds
Fight those who're shouting what isn't true
Do your best to help reality break through
Make your own beat
Don't take the back seat
Challenge those who feel sure
Their privilege lets them break rules
Don't hide or stand aside
Too scared to say what's right
Don't let them say you can't go far
Destroy their words with a wrecking bar
Make your own beat
Don't take the back seat
Fight for reality
To be the person you want to be
Your presence hurled
Against the world
Show the face you want them to see
Fight for your beliefs
Against reality and truth's thieves
Your presence hurled
Against the world
Resist all those who cause the world such grief
Fight for a voice
To call out others' selfish choice
Your presence hurled
Against the world
Push yourself no matter what the price
Make your own beat
Don't take the back seat
Make your own beat
Don't take the back seat
Exactly who you want to be
Refuse to follow senseless rules
Made to suit the whims of fools
Let the world see who you really are
Let them see your beauty and scars
Make your own beat
Don't take the back seat
Choose friends who respect your views
Shun those ruled by fake news
Close your ears to lies swirling around
Tie your beliefs to trusted sounds
Fight those who're shouting what isn't true
Do your best to help reality break through
Make your own beat
Don't take the back seat
Challenge those who feel sure
Their privilege lets them break rules
Don't hide or stand aside
Too scared to say what's right
Don't let them say you can't go far
Destroy their words with a wrecking bar
Make your own beat
Don't take the back seat
Fight for reality
To be the person you want to be
Your presence hurled
Against the world
Show the face you want them to see
Fight for your beliefs
Against reality and truth's thieves
Your presence hurled
Against the world
Resist all those who cause the world such grief
Fight for a voice
To call out others' selfish choice
Your presence hurled
Against the world
Push yourself no matter what the price
Make your own beat
Don't take the back seat
Make your own beat
Don't take the back seat
