Dashni Morad - I Am (Open Your Eyes)

Open your eyes, don’t diss me with your lies
Cause I only wanna be free, free to believe in me
I’m gonna rise, above the cloudy skies
Cause the love in me is for real, I am what I feel

So I’ve been told that I ain’t got no soul
Everybody’s got a story, they think they all know me
I’ve been put down, dragged down into the ground
But it’s in the darkest lows that my spirit really glows

You know really truly honestly I don’t care
If you think you’re gonna rule me out cause I dare
To stand up as a girl and say

Open your eyes, don’t diss me with your lies
Cause I only wanna be free, free to believe in me
I’m gonna rise, above the cloudy skies
Cause the love in me is for real, I am what I feel
I am what I feel

Get up, get up ladies now
Stand up, stand up in this crowd
Fed up, fed up of him now

You say I’m in the wrong, that here I don’t belong
But of the same blood we bleed, and our hearts pound to one beat
I’ve found my voice, and I have made my choice
You know I’m here to stay, get out of my way

You know really truly honestly I don’t care
If you think you’re gonna rule me out cause I dare
To stand up as a girl and say

Open your eyes, don’t diss me with your lies
Cause I only wanna be free, free to believe in me
I’m gonna rise, above the cloudy skies
Cause the love in me is for real, I am what I feel
I am what I feel

Get up, get up ladies now
Stand up, stand up in this crowd
Fed up, fed up of him now

Yo, jeez, so loved but so misjudged
and the game keeps holding a grudge
So confident, and so humble
Girl - "you're the queen of the jungle"
You're the reason they need to confront you
set the media, and need you, and love you
and the stories they leak, and they're untrue
still you stand tall through all the shit that comes through

Open your eyes, don’t diss me with your lies
Cause I only wanna be free, free to believe in me
I’m gonna rise, above the cloudy skies
Cause the love in me is for real, I am what I feel
I am what I feel
