EmYou say I’m different, Cso you treat me lesser than,
But you Gare so wrong about me! Yes, you Dare so wrong about me!
EmBecause I’m like you. I feel Cpain, love, too.
I’m Gyou but in a different body, yet there’s stiDll life inside my body.
EmLet me be free, Cfreedom from your tyranny!
It’s Gall I’ve ever wanted! It’s Dall I’ve ever wanted!

And bring Gjustice to my life, love. Bring Djustice to the lives lost.
EmBecause every day Cthey will try to convince you

That humane murder is justified, but believe me...I don’t want to die!
EmBut I’m at your mercy. CAnd you are the difference.
