Different

I'm just a small town kid
With extraordinary things inside my head
Feeling stuck in a system where dreams are forbidden
I'm paralyzed by the lies I've been fed
They say go to school get good grades
Grow up strong and graduate
Chase that American dream
Like it will keep you safe,
But I am afraid I can't see it that way

All my friends
They don't understand who I am
Part of me is just like them

Part of me feels lost in a circle that never ends
Can't escape this perpetual spin
No I don't need to fit in
Just let me be different

All my friends
They don't understand who I am
Part of me is just like them
Part of me feels different

Who I am is not who they made me to be,
I've got a soul full of hope of a life all my own,
I'll break down these walls and I'll fight to believe
There's no penance for being unique,
That it's okay to be me

All my friends
They don't understand who I am
Part of me is just like them
Part of me feels different
All my friends
They don't understand who I am
Part of me is just like them
Part of me feels different
