I will graciously accept that my life's work, 
Whether it be in the past, the present, 
Or the future will be overshadowed by those around me 
With a different definition of “success.” 

Though I can't explain the path I've chosen, 
All I know is I'm right where I need to be.
And though I've turned down a chance at fame and fortune, 
I know that there is no greater payment than this. 

And I'm so fucking far from the life I'm supposed to lead, 
And the man I'm supposed to be and I couldn't be happier
And I will remain a constant, I know where I stand, 
And I refuse to let their selfishness take control of who I am 
While I may die poor, at least my life had meaning, 
There's more to life than living, and I truly feel alive
And I know that when I die, 
There will be others who feel the same way ready to take my place
This is our song of protest

I promise you that nothing is slowing us down
While I may die poor, at least my life had meaning, 
There's more to life than living and I truly feel alive
And I know that when I die, there will be others who feel the same way 
Ready to take my place. I will laugh in the face of those who tell me different

Even with both of my feet planted firmly on the ground, 
I am free to move in my own direction. I will remain a constant
I know where I stand
