Lily's POV (Finally right? It won't be long though XD)

I felt my heart break more when the man I love shut the door on his friends and saw the broken looks on their faces as he made a toast to Miss Lind. He told her how America was going to love her when he knew that was the our dream. America to love us as we are.

Lettie: I am not a stranger to the dark

'Hide away,' they say

'Cause we don't want your broken parts'

Lily: I've learned to be ashamed of all my scars

'Run away,' they say

'No one'll love you as you are'

Both: But I won't let them break me down to dust

For we are glorious

Lettie: When the sharpest words wanna cut me down

Lily: I'm gonna send a flood gonna drown them out

Lettie: I am brave

Lily: I am bruised

Both: I am who I'm meant to be

This is me!

We sung as she gave me a hug while I hugged back. She held Penny's hand and smiled as we began to walk out.

Lettie: Look out 'cause here I come

Lily: And I'm marching on to the beat I drum

Both: I'm not scared to be seen

I make no apologies

This is me!

Chorus: Oh woah uh oh {4x}

Oh woah oh Oh woah oh

Oh woah oh oh oh

The chorus sung as we walked to the main room where the snobs and rich people were. Once we walked in, they looked at us in disgust and whispered. I became nervous then felt a small hand grab mine and looked to see that it was Charles, helping me out.

Charles: Another round of bullets hits my skin

Penny: Well fire away 'cause today

I won't let the shame sink in

Lettie: We are bursting through the barricades

And reaching for the sun!

Everyone: We are warriors!

Lily: Yeah, that's what we've become!

(Yeah, that's what we've become!)

TRANSITION TO THE TOWN WITH MOB

Everyone: I won't let them break me down to dust

I know that there's a place for us

For we are glorious

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
