Not Heroes Lyrics by Maisly

The Story

0

[Verse 1]
I don't walk a straight line
Stay up 'til the daylight
But I like it that way
No, I don't wear a halo
Not gonna be who I'm not, no
But I like it that way
I like to stay on the outside
Just like my crowd
But I like it that way
Watching from a distance, but this is our world

[Chorus]
No, we're not heroes
On the sidelines of history
We're our kind of royalty
Tryna do the right thing
They won't call us heroes
'Cause we're different, but we're free
Can see what they can't see
Really who cares what they think?
So what if we're not their heroes?
We'll be our own heroes

[Verse 2]
No, we don't need a white horse
We fight our own wars
And we like it that way
We made our own armor
Bricks they threw built our walls
And we like it that way
So long live the critics
They raised our limits
And we like it that way
Watching from a distance, but this is our world

[Chorus]
No, we're not heroes
On the sidelines of history
We're our kind of royalty
Tryna do the right thing
They won't call us heroes
'Cause we're different, but we're free
Can see what they can't see
Really who cares what they think?
So what if we're not their heroes?
We'll be our own heroes

[Bridge]
So bring on your expectations
I'll say with no hesitation
I don't have an explanation
I'm not sorry for who I am, no, no

[Chorus]
No, we're not heroes
On the sidelines of history
We're our kind of royalty
Tryna do the right thing
They won't call us heroes
'Cause we're different, but we're free
Can see what they can't see
Really who cares what they think?
So what if we're not their heroes?
We'll be our own heroes
