Warrior

written by vanessa collier

She smears warrior paint in lines across her face

She takes her place behind the shield

Ferocity glows like embers in her eyes

She’s cauterized her wounds and she

She refuses to yield

Cause they’ve set her house on fire

They try to smother her right to live

They left her with no choice

But to use her voice

And I hope she wins

Barricaded behind big money

They think they’re cunning 

Playin’ a shell game to bury the truth

And the funny thing about the mirage of justice

Is even when you win, you still lose

Cause they’ve set her house on fire

They try to smother her right to live

They left her with no choice

She’ll use her voice

And I hope she wins

She’s goin’ out 

Gonna stand up for what she believes

She’s goin’ out

Gonna dig a trench and dig it deep

Cause if nobody cares

Oh then evil succeeds 

She’s goin’ out 

Gonna stand up for what she believes

She’s goin’ out

Gonna dig a trench and dig it deep

Cause if nobody cares

Oh then evil succeeds

Cause if nobody cares

That’s all evil needs
