This Is Me (The Reimagined Remix) lyrics - Keala Settle, Kesha & Missy Elliott

[Kesha:]

I am not a stranger to the dark

"Hide away," they say

"'Cause we don't want your broken parts"

[Missy Elliott:]

You can put your mind to do whatever you wanna do

Just tell yourself that you capable, too

But don't do things that ain't even cool

And get rid of them no-good friends that's enablin' you

Makin' you feel like you won't be nothin', your life crumblin'

They talk, mumblin'

You gon' be something, you're glorious

We're no gangs, but warriors, we well-known, notorious

They can't stop you or block you or mock you

They mad 'cause you bad and they not you

You fall down, but get up and skip and hop through

Kick down doors for others to walk through

You have a purpose, to make you say, "Did I do that?" Urkel

Now we callin' reality virtual

This is who I am, this is me, don't let them words hurt you

[Kesha:]

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down

I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out

I am brave, I am bruised

I am who I'm meant to be, this is me

[Keala Settle:]

Look out 'cause here I come

And I'm marchin' on to the beat I drum

I'm not scared to be seen

I make no apologies, this is me

[Kesha & Keala Settle {Keala Settle}:]

Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh-oh)

{Oh-oh-oh}, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh

[Keala Settle {Kesha}:]

Another round of bullets hits my skin

Well, fire away 'cause today

I won't let the shame sink in

{We are burstin' through the barricades}

{And reachin' for the sun} (We are warriors)

{Yeah, that's what we've become} (Yeah, that's what we've become)

[Kesha & Keala Settle (Keala Settle):]

I won't let them break me down to dust

I know that there's a place for us

(For we are glorious)

[Kesha & Keala Settle (Missy Elliott):]

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down

I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out

I am brave, I am bruised

I am who I'm meant to be, this is me

Look out 'cause here I come (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

And I'm marchin' on to the beat I drum

I'm not scared to be seen

I make no apologies, this is me

[Missy Elliott:]

I'm alone, I never fit the mold

The world is so cold, hold it down on my own

I'm just tryna reach up to the sky, see the moon

I got confidence 'cause I'm the flyest in the room

And I been knocked down, but I always get up

I had some fake friends, had to go and switch up

Yeah, no pain, no strain, I ain't chasin' all the pain

'Cause I got more to gain, and I'm just tryna make a change

I'm just doin' me, I'm in my own lane

I fell down a few times, but I'm up again

Marchin' to another drum, see me crawl, see me run

When they thought that I was done, no, I'm not, here I come

I'm not weak, I get on my feet

No apologies, yeah, this is me

[Kesha (Keala Settle) {Missy Elliott}:]

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

And I know that I deserve your love

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

(There's nothin' I'm not worthy of) {Uh, yeah, yeah}

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh

[Kesha (Keala Settle) {Kesha & Keala Settle} *Missy Elliott*:]

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down

(I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out)

This is brave, (this is bruised)

(This is who I'm meant to be), {this is me}

Look out 'cause here I come 'cause here I come

And I'm marchin' on to the beat I drum

Marchin' on, (marchin' on, marchin' on to you)

I'm not scared to be seen *Uh, yeah, yeah*

I make no apologies, this is me *No apologies, yeah, this is me*

[Kesha (Keala Settle) {Both}:]

Whenever the words wanna cut me down

Whenever the words go

I'll send the flood to drown them out

Whenever the words go

(I'm gonna send a flood)

(Gonna drown them out, ah)

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, {this is me}
