Before you tell us to smile, look beyond to see the scars that brings a sad face Before you tell us to fight, see the fresh wounds that reminds us of the same battle field Before you tell us to understand, test the war in the mind trying to understand ourselves With every judgment, there are things you wouldn’t understand Our backs ache for carrying heavy pasts, we are just trying to stand upright If you know how much effort we have put in, you wouldn’t dare put us down We have fallen many times, but we never remain down With every judgment, there are things you wouldn’t understand Don’t make us feel out of place Don’t make us hurt more Don’t make us feel scared in the society we rightfully belong Don’t make us fade within There are things you wouldn’t understand

Beyond the Judgment
Before you tell us to smile, look beyond to see the scars that brings a sad face Before you tell us to fight, see the fresh wounds that reminds us of the same battle field Before you tell us to understand, test the war in the mind trying to understand ourselves With every judgment, there are things you wouldn’t understand Our backs ache for carrying heavy pasts, we are just trying to stand upright If you know how much effort we have put in, you wouldn’t dare put us down We have fallen many times, but we never remain down With every judgment, there are things you wouldn’t understand Don’t make us feel out of place Don’t make us hurt more Don’t make us feel scared in the society we rightfully belong Don’t make us fade within There are things you wouldn’t understand
