[Verse 1]
I wanna live in a democracy
I wanna live in a democracy
Somewhere where art is free

[Chorus 1]
Not that it ever was
Not that it ever was
Not that it ever was

[Verse 2]
I want you to go beyond my name
Reality's not a measuring cup
When I listen deep, I'm not my owner

[Chorus 2]
Maybe I never was
Maybe I never was
Maybe I never was

[Outro]
Out there is the world
Where you're threatening the lives
Of fragile individuals whеn you stir in the mud
Look to the birds
To the crowds that havе dispersed
In the wounded air that we call "freedom"
