We Know How It Feels

How can they be so cruel,

When they call me names to hurt me,

Exception to the rule

No, they knowing nothing at all

No they don't understand,

How I could hold your hand

Will they ever understand

How I could hold your hand close to me

Oh, we know how it feels

Our love is real

I'm a prisoner in this age

It won't give in easy

They'll have to turn the page

Instead of putting you down

Needing a helping hand

I'm not so different after all

Needing a promised land

So we can get along
