I heard them whisper and say
Bad things about you, accusations we both know are wrong
It's not true, what they say about you
It's not true, what they say about you
I know you as generous and kind
They were blind with the injustice of this crazy world
I know you as humble and fair
How can anyone expect you to
Solve all the problems addressed to you?
They had too many, and your arms too few
Don't let them tell you, don't let them tell you who you are
Don't let them tell you, don't let them tell you who you are
Don't let them tell you, don't let them tell you who you are
I heard them calling your name
In a way that's supposed to make you feel bad
For the mess your father made
They want to open your wounds again
Turn the eyes of the world away
From their own well-hidden crimes
I want to tell you that I love you
But I know you can't hear me now
I know you can't hear me now
Don't let them tell you, don't let them tell you who you are
Don't let them tell you, don't let them tell you who you are
Don't let them tell you, don't let them tell you who you are
Don't let them tell you, don't let them tell you who you are
Don't let them tell you, don't let them tell you who you are
Don't let them tell you, don't let them tell you who you are
