[Intro]
Yeah
To me
My X-Men (woo)
[Verse 1]
Walk in, doors slide on their own
Whole squad rare, each one full-grown
You see scars, I see chromosomes
Turned every outcast into ozone
Take in strays like it's policy
Turn their shame into sovereignty
They called "freak" now they calling me
When the storm hits, I’m the balcony
War in my head, I recruit from it
Pain in their eyes, I salute from it
They tried to cage every truth in us
We learned to phase through the roof of it
I don't beg for a place at the table
I build a school out of every label
Every kid that they tried to disable
Got a chapter in my fable (yeah)
[Chorus]
To me, my X-Men
Scars on your face, that's a crest, friend
They throw stones, we deflect them
Turn every wound to a weapon
To me, my X-Men
You ain't a curse, you're the next trend
They drew a line, we just stepped in
Say my name once, I bring the legends (legends)
[Verse 2]
She bend light when she panics
He hear lies in the static
They both think they too damaged
I see balance, I see magic
They said "hide what you got, stay small"
But my people don't shrink, we sprawl
If your gift feel more like a brawl
I'm the call when you hit that wall
Yeah, I know what it's like, that mirror
Where the world made the cracks seem clearer
Where your own skin feels like error
I'm the voice that rewrites that terror (yeah)
Take your tremor, take your glitch
Take that rumor, take that itch
Bring it all, every broken stitch
We gon' flip fate like a switch (hey!)
[Chorus]
To me, my X-Men
Scars on your face, that's a crest, friend
They throw stones, we deflect them
Turn every wound to a weapon
To me, my X-Men
You ain't a curse, you're the next trend
They drew a line, we just stepped in
Say my name once, I bring the legends (yeah, yeah)
[Bridge]
If they fear you, stand beside me (stand beside)
If they hunt you, move behind me (right behind)
If they doubt you, just remind me
Who they tried to burn, we made shining
[Chorus]
To me, my X-Men
Scars on your face, that's a crest, friend
They throw stones, we deflect them
Turn every wound to a weapon
To me, my X-Men
You ain't a curse, you're the next trend
They drew a line, we just stepped in
Say my name once, I bring the legends (legends)
