Always been you
I tried to find myself in other people,
Needless to say, you’re one of them, always been
I can’t forget who you are despite of all the stories that I hear
I’m still looking in the crowd every minute of every day,
Hoping I’ll see you out there searching for me.
I’d choose you over anyone because you know what it’s like
To breathe, to see, to feel the ground shaking beneath your feet
You’ve been in my shoes so you know why I say the words I say,
You understand what it’s like to live feeling you’re dying in every way.
The flame still burns inside, it doesn’t burn in vain,
I know I can face it all, I’d go to hell and back to save ourselves
Forget the truth, I’d choose humanity over any written rule any day
And if they’ll kill me I’ll rise back from the dead just to prove them wrong
I’ll be fine, I know you’d do the same.
You know I don’t care about the praise and love
I don’t care if I find my name written on a wall
Nothing really matters from what I say and do
Unless they see how much I am like you.
~ A. A. Roman
