Anthem
Ever Stays Red Lyrics

Am I inside out or upside down
I feel confused about myself and my identity.

Or just some experiment gone wrong
I feel like I'm a mistake or an aberration of nature.

Did I invade the planet like sci-fi
I feel like an outsider or an alien in this world.

And take on some freakish form
I feel like I have an abnormal appearance or behavior.

Is this segregation justified
I question the reasons behind the prejudice and discrimination I face.

Cause to the world I don?t fit the norm
I feel like I don't belong or fit in with the majority of people around me.

I?ve been patronized and pushed aside
I feel like I'm being treated unfairly and disrespectfully.

My life just simply ignored
I feel like my existence and my needs are being dismissed or overlooked.

But I?m here to stay
I assert my right to exist and to be accepted as I am.

So be forewarned
I warn the people who reject and discriminate against me that I won't give up or back down.

And I lay and wait
I feel alone and helpless, waiting for a savior or a solution.

For something to take me away from this place
I hope for a way out of my current situation or environment.

The time has come for me
I announce my readiness and determination to take action and make a change.

For me to stop living for the world
I decide to stop conforming to the expectations and values of society.

Inside I know
I have a strong conviction or belief in my purpose and destiny.

That I have been called for such more
I believe that I have a special mission or role in life that goes beyond the ordinary.

And I will not let it waste away
I promise to make the most of my potential and opportunities.

His call on me will not be in vain
I trust that God has a purpose for my life and will use me for his glory and kingdom.

I will change this world for what I want
I take responsibility for making a positive impact on the world according to my own values and vision.

Cause I don?t want to buy what I?ve been sold
I reject the mainstream culture and media that promotes conformity and consumerism.

Don?t you avoid the masses or run and hide
I encourage others not to isolate themselves or to be afraid of being different or unpopular.

Cause outcast is growing old
I believe that the time has come for the marginalized and the oppressed to unite and assert their rights.

This intimidation will subside
I believe that the fear and hostility towards diversity and change will decrease as people become more aware and accepting.

Cause for the call we must be bold
I urge people to be brave and committed to their purpose and values, even in the face of opposition.

I have so much left to live
I affirm my love for life and my hope for the future.

Cause You gave Your life
I acknowledge the sacrifice and example of Jesus, who inspires me to live for others and for God.

I have so much left to give
I express my gratitude and my desire to serve and love others.
