Represent

Intro:Am C

Am C
A kid came up to me now just the other day
And asked me if I thought about what I would say
If everything came crashing down on top of me
How would I stay torn?

C G Am F
Will you represent?
Will you stand close?
Will they shame you?
Will they blame you?

Am C
It's funny how the words of a child can be
Simple, but the thought there is so meaningful
Makes me wonder what I would say to me
In the eyes of another

C G Am F
Will you represent?
Will you stand close?
Will they shame you?
Will they blame you?

C G Am F
There's a consequence
For the path you chose
Will they change you?

Am F
Will they make you who you are? [x3]

Am F
Let the free world ride your way
In these times of darkened days
Let the free world ride your way (let the free world ride your way)

C G Am F
You will represent
You'll stand close
They won't shame you
They won't change you

C G Am F
There's a consequence
For the path you chose
They can't change you
They can't make you who you are not.
