"Far We Come" lyrics

"Far We Come"

I never knew, but now I'm older
I'm not sure who to befriend
And as I say this, all the sadness
Lands upon me, on my head

Heart safe's working
I changed the code
The numbers I have stored
I'll get a pin and push it in
And hang my worries at the door

I lay my story on the line
For the days you're doing fine
I feel it's only about time
Not to blame, it's not our crime
They said we all look the same
Say you like me calling names
Breaking free from all the pain
Far we come
One by one

And in the moment there's a calling
We are looking out for more
Learning I'm only here
'Cause they were there
Is something you forgot
All that melanin they say is now for hire
This time, I'll get my heart's desire

I lay my story on the line
For the days you're doing fine
I feel it's only about time
Not to blame, it's not our crime
They said we all look the same
Say you like me calling names
Breaking free from all that pain
Far we come

I lay my story on the line
For the days you're doing fine
I feel it's only about time
Not to blame, it's not our crime
They said we all look the same
Say you like me calling names
Breaking free from all the pain
Far we come

Been a black sheep all my life
It's okay, you're just my type
I think I'll stay, I've found my tribe
In a multi-colour vibe
I wouldn't say they're all the same
'Cause you love me anyway
I've broken free from all the pain

Far we come
One by one
Far we come
One by one
