DOROTHY - Black Sheep

Hail, hail the black sheep
We are blood, we are family

Call me an outcast, call me a freak
Watch those bullets ricochet straight off of me
'Cause I belong where right is wrong

No lost cause like the good books say
Don't give a damn what people think
I march along to a different song

Oh, I feel it deep in my bones
I was born to break every curse, every chain
So I'm singing

Hail, hail the black sheep
We are blood, we are family

Pray the lord my soul to keep
Hail, hail, the black sheep

Thinkin' like water, think it speaks
Oh, how the river runs deep

We are blood, we are family
Hail, hail the black sheep

Can't shut me up, won't bite my tongue
Speak my truth till the day is done
I'm not a saint, I own my pain

Never was lost, but I found my way
Always knew I'd show my scars one day
For the rules I broke, helped me build my throne

Oh, I'm right where I belong
Now I'm singing

Hail, hail the black sheep
We are blood, we are family

Pray the lord my soul to keep
Hail, hail, the black sheep

Thinkin' like water, think it speaks
Oh, how the river runs deep

We are blood, we are family
Hail, hail the black sheep

Hail the black sheep, yeah
Hail the black sheep, oh yeah

From the streets, to the gutters
We're sisters and brothers

One nation under one love, one color
Born to be
Black sheep

Hail, hail the black sheep
We are blood, we are family

Pray the lord my soul to keep
Hail, hail, the black sheep

Thinkin' like water, think it speaks
Oh, how the river runs deep

We are blood, we are family
Hail, hail the black sheep

From the streets, to the gutters
We're sisters and brothers

We are blood, we are family
Hail, hail the black sheep
