LITTLE GIRL ALONE
ON THE PLAYGROUND
TIRED OF GETTIN'
TEASED AND GETTIN'
PUSHED AROUND
WISHIN' SHE WAS
INVISIBLE
TO THEM
SHE RAN HOME CRYIN'
WHY DO THEY HATE ME
AND MAMA WIPED
HER TEARS
AND SAID BABY
YOU'RE BRAVE
AND YOU'RE
BEAUTIFUL
SO HOLD
YOUR HEAD HIGH
DON'T EVER LET
THEM DEFINE
THE LIGHT
IN YOUR EYES
LOVE YOURSELF
GIVE 'EM HELL
YOU CAN TAKE ON
THIS WORLD
YOU JUST STAND
AND BE STRONG
AND THEN FIGHT
LIKE A GIRL
AT THIRTY-ONE
SHE WAS WHEELIN'
DEALIN'
KEPT ON HITTIN'
THAT SAME GLASS
CEILIN'
SHE WAS NEVER
GONNA BE
ONE OF THE BOYS
NO
SHE COULDA GAVE UP
ON HER AMBITIONS
AND SPENT THE REST
OF HER LIFE
JUST WISHIN'
INSTEAD SHE LISTENED
TO HER MAMA'S VOICE
SAYIN'
HOLD YOUR HEAD HIGH
DON'T EVER LET
THEM DEFINE
THE LIGHT IN YOUR EYES
LOVE YOURSELF
GIVE 'EM HELL
YOU CAN TAKE ON
THIS WORLD
YOU JUST STAND
AND BE STRONG
AND THEN FIGHT
LIKE A GIRL
OH WITH STYLE
AND GRACE
KICK ASS
AND TAKE NAMES
TEN YEARS OF CLIMBIN'
THAT LADDER
OH BUT MONEY
AND POWER
DON'T MATTER
WHEN THE DOCTOR
SAID
THE CANCER
SPREAD
SHE HOLDS ON TIGHT
TO HER HUSBAND
AND BABIES
AND SAYS
THIS IS JUST
ANOTHER TEST
GOD GAVE ME
AND I KNOW JUST HOW
TO HANDLE THIS
I'LL HOLD MY HEAD HIGH
I'LL NEVER LET
THIS DEFINE
THE LIGHT IN MY EYES
LOVE MYSELF
GIVE IT HELL
I'LL TAKE ON
THIS WORLD
YES I'LL STAND
AND BE STRONG
NO I'LL NEVER GIVE UP
I WILL CONQUER
WITH LOVE
AND I'LL FIGHT
LIKE A GIRL
OOH YEAH
