Made it Through the Night

I heard it a mocking bird In the morning light sun You told me the words that they were singing out That they had made it out In the dark we were brave Took a spark to create Our own light our own fate our own sound And they've tried every day To make us the mistake But it gave us the strength to stand out We made it through the night I can't explain it but I wouldn't change it We sing cause we made it We made it through the night No one can erase us We're here and we're staying We sing cause we made it We made it through the night What a relief, us finding our wings After everything that we have waited out Something to sing about So we're proud and we paint And we shout our own names With our fists and our heels and our gowns And they've tried every way To make us the mistake But it gave us the strength to find out We made it through the night I can't explain it but I wouldn't change it We sing cause we made it We made it through the night No one can erase us We're here and we're staying We sing cause we made it We made it through the night There's a magic coming down There's a light above us now Shapeshifting in the sound In defense of my difference I like that I'm like this Not trying to fight this Something to sing about Something to sing about Something to sing about
