lyrics

Don't get me wrong;
I understand
That you think you're doing me a favor,
But I don't need you to hold my hand.

So take it back,
Let's think this through.
See, every time you elevate yourself above me
You're putting yourself down too.

Because they don't give a shit about you.

They want to try to define us.
The way we are is just fine for us.
This is not just my fight,
This is also your fight.
Do you really want somebody else to
Tell you who to be?

So listen up.
Take it from me.
See, every time they tell me how to be a woman,
They're telling you how a man should be.

Those kind of lies
They hurt us all
It's up to us to make a choice to stand united,
It's time that we tear down walls.

Because those walls
Have no place here.

So don't walk in front of me
I will not follow,
Just walk beside me
And be my friend.
Don't walk in front of me
I will not follow,
Just walk beside me
And be my friend.

Tear down
Society's wrongs,
Fight for a world where we all can belong.
This is your chance
To stand for what's right:
We need allies, not white knights.

We need allies, not white knights.
