Every day a hot take
People saying we're fake
Every way people try to tear us down
And we give and they take
People keeping us down
Running us out of town
But we won't run, we will all unite as one
Here's where we stand our ground
You can't make me you
You can't make that true
This is who I am
I will take a stand
Go again and again
So you're doing the same
Think we're new, think we're scary through and through
You make us take the blame
Won't you look past the lies
Won't you open your eyes
We are people too, we are just like you
You can see if you try
You can't make me you
You can't make that true
This is who I am
We'll go hand in hand in hand in hand

Every day somebody asks again
Every way phrasing it to explain
You pretend that you are here to learn
In the end you want to watch us squirm
We've all heard it before
But you still talk more
Don't tell me that you can understand
This is something you must do firsthand
Don't tell me that you know what is right
You have no idea what it is like
Don't tell me that you know
Don't tell me, just go
There is one thing
That I cannot stand
And it's you, dear
Head in the sand
It's not really
Ignorance I mind
Just the wilful
Bigots who find us
You must think that you are so unique
Trying to educate all the freaks
Blissfully unaware of how crude
Heard before, bigoted, and plain rude
All the things that you say
Come off every day
Existence is resistance
Complaining
Cissplaining
Words raining
So draining
There is one thing
That I cannot stand
And it's you, dear
Head in the sand
It's not really
Ignorance I mind
Just the wilful
Bigots who find us
Don't let them define us

Zoë Blade Stoke On Trent, UK
British composer Zoë Blade first started making music at the age of sixteen. Fourteen years, countless synthesizers and several bright hair colors later, she finally decided to start sharing her music with the world. Her sound, as eclectic as the musician herself, ranges from electronic pop songs with infectious melodies, through to ambient music that is at times blissful and others haunting. ... more
