LYRICS:

It’s a beautiful life
But I’m not concerned
It’s a beautiful dream
But a dream is earned
I can dress like a boy
I can dress like a girl
Keep your beautiful words
'Cause I’m not concerned

'Cause your world is such a shame
'Cause your world’s obsessed with fame
'Cause your world’s in so much pain
'Cause your world is, 'cause your world is
Up in flames

It’s a beautiful plan
But I’m not concerned
It’s a beautiful game
That I've never learned
People tell me to shut my mouth (shut your mouth)
That I might get burned
Keep your beautiful lies
‘Cause I’m not concerned

'Cause your world is such a shame
'Cause your world’s obsessed with fame
'Cause your world’s in so much pain
‘Cause your world is
‘Cause your world is

I will not denounce the things that I have said
I will not renounce my faith in my sweet Lord
He has chosen me to
Fight against the English
And I’m not afraid at all to die
‘Cause I believe in Him

God is on my side and I’ll be His bride
I am not afraid cause I have faith in Him
You can cut my hair and
Throw me in a jail cell
Say that I’m a witch and burn me at the stake
It’s all a big mistake

Don’t you know to doubt Him is a sin
I won’t give in

They are so naive,
They think we're not aware
Of their crimes

We know
But we're just not ready to act
The storm isn't in the air
It’s inside of us
I want to tell you about love
And loneliness
But it’s getting late now
Can’t you hear outside of your
Supreme hoodie
The wind that’s
Beginning to howl

It’s a beautiful life
