"Unashamed" lyrics - MEMPHIS MAY FIRE

I see a world running in circles
They don't know what they're chasing
They find the pain with the money and fame
Looking for love in all the wrong places
I see the look on their face
I think they're about to cave in
(I think they're about to cave in)
I can't just stand by and wait
Hoping that somehow they make it out
So here I go!

[Chorus:]
I've got nothing to be ashamed of (I'm not ashamed),
So why should I hide and wait for someone else to say the word?
There is nothing to be afraid of (I'm not afraid)
So I'll spend my life speaking what I know needs to be heard

They hide their pain
And embrace the darkness
Alone and what they're facing (what they're facing)
If I keep quiet
While I watch them dying
I am no different than the demons
That they're fighting

[Chorus:]
I've got nothing to be ashamed of (I'm not ashamed)
So why should I hide and wait for someone else to say the word?
There is nothing to be afraid of (I'm not afraid)
So I'll spend my life speaking what I know needs to be heard

[Bridge:]
I will illuminate with every word I say
Until my dying day I will be unashamed
I am no stranger to the pain of being hated (being hated)
But I just can't bear the weight
Of a life that's wasted. I won't waste it, no!
If I stare right into their eyes
And never say a word
I gave up on who I'm to be (who I'm to be)
If I don't share this love I've found
I am the one to blame
This is not my secret to keep

[Outro:]
(I've got nothing to be ashamed of, hey!)
I've got nothing to be ashamed of (I'm not ashamed)
So why should I hide and wait for someone else to say the word?
There is nothing to be afraid of (I'm not afraid)
So I'll spend my life speaking what I know needs to be heard
I've got nothing to be ashamed of (I've got nothing to be ashamed)
So why should I hide and wait for someone else to say the word?
Until my dying day, I will be unashamed!
