making myself
a place in the world
they say ``you're on your own now''
as if i have to be told
i'm not overpowered
by the powers that be
i'll land on my own two feet
if you leave it to me
us and them
you and i
we're always taking sides
choose from black or white
the truth is grey sometimes
neither right or wrong
maybe mind my own business
maybe i don't belong
we can share
ourselves go all around
pay attention to what they say
help me to be found
it's our turn now to speak up
we can bring a change
everybody wake up
wash me of this shame
