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 the tears and said
Baby you're brave and you're beautiful
So hold your head high, don't ever let 'em define the light in your eyes
Love yourself, give them hell, you can take on this world
You just stand and be strong and then fight like a girl
At 31 she was wheelin' and dealinKept on hittin' that same glass ceilinShe was never gonna one of the boys, no
She could've gave up on her ambition
And spent the rest of her life just wishinInstead she listened to her mama's voice sayin
Hold your head high, don't ever let 'em define the light in your eyes
Love yourself, give them hell, you can take on this world
You just stand and be strong and then fight like a girl
With style and grace kick ass and take names
Ten years of climbin' that ladder
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
If I stand and be strong, no I'll never give up
I will conquer with love and I'll fight like a girl
