[Verse 1]
They point fingers on the sidewalk
Eyes sharp like little knives
They keep talking
Talking
Talking
But they never lived our lives
Rainbow badge on my jacket
Lip gloss
Bruises
Healed scars
Every story on this body
Is a flag
Is a star
[Pre-Chorus]
You can stare
I’m still shining
You can laugh
I’m still loud
Every scar is a siren
Pulling power from the crowd
[Chorus]
Our bodies
Our rights
We’re blazing in the night
Yeah
Our choices
Our lives
You don’t get to decide
We’re queer and we’re proud
Say it higher
Say it now
Our bodies
Our rights
Our human rights
Our fights
[Verse 2]
You say “normal”
I say “boring”
I was born for brighter scenes
Holding hands out in the market
Middle of your angry screens
I cut my hair
Paint my future
Change my name
Change my mind
Every label that you throw us
We remix it into pride
[Pre-Chorus]
You can shout
I’m still dancing
You can push
I won’t fall
Every “no” becomes an answer
“I am here
I own it all”
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
This skin is mine [low vocal register]
This heart is mine
This love is mine
Get off my spine
(trans lives, gay lives, we rise, all lives) [gang vocals]
Linked arms
One voice
That’s right
We sign our names across the sky
[Chorus]
