Grace Potter - Look What We've Become lyrics

They told you to keep your head down They told you not to run They told you "we're sorry, you're not the fortunate one" They told me to keep it quiet Said my day would never come So I screamed my lungs out and I ran straight for the sun And they always told us we would be nothing Look what we've done (look what we've done), hey And they always told us we would be nothing But look what we've become (look what we've become) And they told you you don't understand They told you, "let it go" And then they took you by the hand And led you out the door Your words don't make a sound My dreams are on the floor But you're rising up from underground And I'm nothing like I was before And they always told us we would be nothing But look what we've done (look what we've done), hey And they always told us we would be nothing Now look what we've become (look what we've become) They say it's over now The world is over you They told me "no regrets" There's nothing you can do But I won't fade to black On the walk that will be damned I'll wear my heart like a flag and run Straight for the sun Always told us we would be nothing And they always told us we would be nothing Told us "keep your heads down" They told us not to run They told us "we're sorry, you're not the chosen ones" They told us to keep it quiet And said our day would never come So we screamed our bloody lungs out and ran straight for the sun And they always told us we would be nothing And look what we've done (look what we've done), hey And they always told us we would be nothing But look what we've become (look what we've become) Uh, uh Look what we've become
