about

A song about a mujer facing adversity and beating statistics.

lyrics

She believes she could, so she did
Labeled as a statistic.
Fights off resistance in her low-grade scene,
Handing over power because of her last name and sex.

Anticipating liberation,
Veins filled,
waiting to paint the town gold.
Tired of suffocating from the disease of poverty,
Confidence stripped at birth,
We'll never know our worth.
Having to crawl through the thorns of white roses,
To gain it back, to gain it back, to gain it back.

Sometimes she wishes she can be,
On the other side of the fence.
Poking fun at abuse victims and shooting guns,
To prove her privilege.

Anticipating liberation,
Veins filled,
waiting to paint the town gold.
Tired of suffocating from the disease of poverty,
Confidence stripped at birth,
We'll never know our worth.
Having to crawl through the thorns of white roses,
To gain it back, to gain it back, to gain it back.
