Identity - August Burns Red

Do you know how it feels to hide?

With thoughts repressed deep down inside?

I guess you just loved the lie

Truth is, you can’t decide where my heart resides

You want to cure me of this epidemic

You call me sick, I wish I had said it

The words to admit to you who I am

My entire life, I was dealt the wrong hand

And cast aside (Cast aside) from the man that I am!

I’ve never felt so free

And it kills me, to hear you say;

«you choose to love me»

I was hoping that would be a given, given our history

I’ve never felt so free (So free)

You think I’m wrong, you think I’m wrong

But I never felt better

Stop living in denial.

Stop loving the lie

I thought blood was thicker than water

You think I’m wrong but I never felt better

Stop living in denial

Stop loving the lie

I thought blood was thicker than water

You think I’m wrong but I never felt better

I know I disappointed you

But I’ve got nothing to prove

You want to cure me of this epidemic

You call me sick, I wish I had said it

The words to admit to you who I am

My entire life, I was dealt the wrong hand

Now I’ve realized this is who I am, I am

I’ve made my decision

You’re either with or against me

You’re either with or against me

You’re either with or against me!

Stop living in denial.

Stop loving the lie

I thought blood was thicker than water

You think I’m wrong but I never felt better

Stop living in denial.

Stop loving the lie

I’m standing firm, It’s who I am, who I am

You can’t keep me, you can’t keep me down!

Iʼm moving on, I’m living free, living free

You canʼt stop me, you can’t stop me now!

I’m standing firm, it’s who I am, who I am

You can’t keep me, you can’t keep me down!

Iʼm moving on, I’m living free, living free

You canʼt stop me, you can’t stop me now!
