Warrior

1. This is a story that I have never told
I gotta get this off my chest to let it go
I need to take back the light inside you stole
You're a criminal
And you steal like you're a pro.

All the pain and the truth
I wear like a battle wound
So ashamed, so confused
I was broken and bruised.

[Chorus:]
Now I'm a warrior
Now I've got thicker skin
I'm a warrior
I'm stronger than I've ever been
And my armor, is made of steel, you can't get in
I'm a warrior
And you can never hurt me again.

2. Out of the ashes, I'm burning like a fire
You can save your apologies, you're nothing but a liar
I've got shame, I've got scars
That I will never show
I'm a survivor
In more ways than you know.

Cause all the pain and the truth
I wear like a battle wound
So ashamed, so confused
I'm not broken or bruised.

[Bridge:]
There's a part of me I can't get back
A little girl grew up too fast
All it took was once, I'll never be the same
Now I'm taking it back my life today
Nothing left that you can say
Cause you were never gonna take the blame anyway.
