" This is Me " the Greatest Showman

 No matter what your gender, skin colour, sexuality and religion we are all equal.



The song “This is Me” is an anthem for all of those souls who keep persisting, thriving and fighting to carve a space in this world despite adversity, despite rejection, despite hate, despite inequality, despite toxic criticism, despite ridicule, despite the odds bashing your down. You’re bruised but you’re brave. Don’t ever give up. You are glorious. Be proud of your light. Bathe their doubts with the glow of your flame. Don’t ever let anyone dull your shine.


This Is Me

I am not a stranger to the dark
Hide away, they say
'Cause we don't want your broken parts
I've learned to be ashamed of all my scars
Run away, they say
No one'll love you as you are

But I won't let them break me down to dust
I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh

Another round of bullets hits my skin
Well, fire away 'cause today, I won't let the shame sink in
We are bursting through the barricades and
Reaching for the sun (we are warriors)
Yeah, that's what we've become (yeah, that's what we've become)

Chorus :…..

This is me

And I know that I deserve your love
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) There's nothing I'm not worthy of
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
This is brave, this is bruised
This is who I'm meant to be, this is me

Look out 'cause here I come (look out 'cause here I come)
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum (marching on, marching, marching on)
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
I'm gonna send a flood
Gonna drown 'em out
Oh
This is me

This song makes me remember of the time I finally had enough of people criticizing me , I’m not perfect but my friends like me the way I am and I’m not gonna change who I am to fit in

This one is one of the few songs that gives me confidence that I am perfect just the way I am, even with how messed up of a life I have. It doesn't matter what type of a life I've lived - I can still make it through with confidence because I don't need anybody. I can make it on my own.


This song is such an anthem for people who aren't or weren't accepted for who they are. it's truly beautiful and I think everyone struggling with bullies, shaming, etc  just see the movie. incredible.
