Identity Lyrics
Do you know how it feels to hide
with thoughts repressed deep down inside?
I guess you just loved the lie.
Truth is, you can't decide where my heart resides.
You want to cure me of this epidemic, you call me sick.
I wish I had said it, the words to admit to you who I am.
My entire life I was dealt the wrong hand
and cast aside from the man that I am.
I've never felt so free.
It kills me to hear you say you "choose to love me."
I was hoping that would be a given, given our history.
I've never felt so free, so free
You think I'm wrong, you think I'm wrong
but I never felt better.
Stop living in denial, stop loving the lie.
I thought blood was thicker than water.
You think I'm wrong but I've never felt better. (x2)
I know I disappointed you,
but I've got nothing to prove.
You want to cure me of this epidemic, you call me sick.
I wish I had said it, the words to admit to you who I am.
My entire life I was dealt the wrong hand,
but now I've realized this is who I am.
I've made my decision, you're either with or against me.
You're either with or against me. (x2)
Stop living in denial, stop loving the lie.
I thought blood was thicker than water.
You think I'm wrong but I've never felt better.
Stop living in denial, stop loving the lie.
I'm standing firm. It's who I am.
You can't keep me, you can't keep me down.
I'm moving on. I'm living free.
You can't stop me, you can't stop me now. (x2)

Sounds like a song directed at a family member (probably a sibling). "I thought blood was thicker than water".
The song doesn't seem to delve into rebelling against an authoritative figure (parent) but more so that a sibling has chosen to always view them as something they are not.
That is they expected more of them, or wanted them to be more like them. But the singer is saying ... "NO!" I will be "free ... it's who I am"
To me it sounds like someone demanded to he accepted by the people he cares about and is supposed to love him for who he his but they hate him for a lifestyle he chose or a decision he made
