Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Give me strength, don't give me grief
I don't wanna break or mend your beliefs
I wanna hear ya and keep my mind free
I'm not gonna judge ya, I hope you don't judge me
[Verse 2]
Tell me, do you feel an angel somehow has given you the right
To advise the world and his wife how to live their lives?
Whoever you may be, whatever walk of life
It's you who holds your light, it's up to you whether you hide it
Or let it shine
[Verse 3]
We are who we are, love us or move on
Don't you know that there's a star guiding everyone?
We are who we are, love us or move on
Don't you know that there's a star guiding everyone?
[Verse 4]
Speak a solution, you can keep your problems
I hear your opinion and yes we've all, yes we've all got 'em
Somebody's trash is somebody's treasure
Somebody's laugh is somebody's pain
Somebody's loss is somebody's gain
[Verse 5]
It don't matter what car you drive or whatever sound you like
It don't matter if you're prayin' to God
Or trustin' mother nature's strife
What's true to you and I may be won't be right for another kind of life
Can't we agree to disagree and we can be happy?
[Verse 6]
We are who we are, love us or move on
Don't you know that there's a star guiding everyone?
We are who we are, love us or move on
Don't you know that there's a star guiding everyone?
We are who we are
[Verse 7]
We should be able to say what we think and make love at the end of the day
We should be able to step out of sin and fall back in our own kinda way
It's okay if you don't wanna see, it's okay if you disagree
So reach inside of yourself and realize that you're one of a kind
And all that you are is just fine, know that you're you and I'm me
[Verse 8]
Free to fly, free to fall
Free to learn, love and lie
It's up to you to live
If you don't know what to do with yourself, just breathe
[Verse 9]
We are who we are, love us or move on
Don't you know that there's a star guiding everyone?
We are who we are, love us or move on
Don't you know that there's a star guiding everyone?
We are who we are, love us or move on
Don't you know that there's a star guiding everyone?
We are who we are
[Verse 10]
Live, live
Live, live
We are who we are
Live, live
Live, live
We are who we are (Live)
