[Verse 1]
You make laws like I’m not breathing,
Like my truth is just a phase, with no meaning,
Strip my name,
But I’m still here, unfortunately living life in fear,
Tired of holding in the silence,
Tired of fighting just to be.
I’m not your danger, I’m your mirror don’t you see?
What you’re scared of lives in you, not me.
[Pre-Chorus]
This body’s mine, this heart beats loud,
But your rules say I don’t count.
You build your fear, then blame my face,
What justice do you preach with hate?
[Chorus]
Can you see me now?
I’m more than headlines,
Will you hear me out or just be loud?
I bleed the same, cry the same tears, we are all human behind these fears!
You say “protection” but build a wall
Tell me who you’re saving at all?
Can you see me now, see me now…
[Verse 2]
You turn debates into my rights,
Like I’m a topic, not a life.
But I’ve got dreams, I’ve got a heartbeat,
I’ve seen people like me in shadows,
Boys like me told not to speak.
It’s 2025 still having to survive not truly live,
No law can drown what’s underneath.
[Pre-Chorus]
We’re not your trend you can test,
We’re just asking for respect.
You call it woke, I call it truth,
Just let us live, is that too much to fucking do?
[Chorus]
Can you see me now?
I’m more than headlines, more than what you fear.
Will you hear me out or just be loud?
I bleed the same, cry the same tears.
You say “protection” but build a wall,
Tell me who you’re saving at all?
Can you see me now, see me now…
[Bridge – Spoken Word or Rap section]
We’re your siblings, your neighbours, your lovers, your friends
This isn’t a phase, it’s a fight that won’t end.
We’ve buried our dead, while the courtrooms debate,
We’re not your threat, we’re your mirror of fate.
When silence is law, and truth is denied,
What side of the line will you stand?
[Final Chorus – Stronger, layered vocals]
Can you see me now?
Through all the noise, the lies, the sad demands for our freedom of speech being in your hands!
Will you stand up now?
We’re not your problem, we are your proof
That love is louder than your truth.
Can you see me now, see me now…
’Cause we’re not going away.
