lyrics

we got a good thing going
go where the river flows and
I'm gonna raise our sails up
cause I can only be the true me, only be the true me

my freak flag's gonna wave real big and loud
cause it makes no difference how other people see us
cause I can only be the true me, only be the true me
you know me

I gotta feel it in my heart
saying who I am
you just know it when it comes
and I can feel it now

yeah I'm standing on the edge where I'm supposed to be
and I feel like if I fall it'd be fine by me
as long as I'm myself what will be will be
I have to be the true me

I'm gonna put love first and
be with my favorite person
she's how I found my freedom
now I can only be the true me, only be the true me

my freak flag's gonna wave real big and proud
cause it makes no difference how other people see us
cause I can only be the true me, only be the true me
you know me

I gotta feel it in my heart
saying who I am
I can't ignore the sound
and I can feel it now

yeah I'm standing on the edge where I'm supposed to be
and I feel like if I fall it'd be fine by me
as long as I'm myself what will be will be
I have to be the true me
yeah I'm standing on the edge where I'm supposed to be
I'm saying what I want, you can't censor me
as long as I'm myself what will be will be
I have to be the true me

it can rain until the clouds fill up the sea
the sun can shine until the pavement burns your feet
but we don't care which way the tides going
if you can think then you can think for yourself

no one's gonna speak for me
cause you know I got a mouth and it works great

Mayaenova Austin, Texas

Jam-packed with juicy 60s drum samples, spicy 70s-style bass licks, and caustic Bernie-cratic lyrics decrying the rampant income and wealth inequality ever since, DONOR REPUBLIC is a 20-song ode to freedom from corporatism, crony capitalism, and the corrupt political system in which we live. ... more
