Frustration in my mind, I channel it through my art, I’m battling with my demons, while they try to take my heart,

Exception —

Frustration in my mind, I channel it through my art,

I’m battling with my demons, while they try to take my heart,

Got gifts from above call it the heart of a lion

My mind is alive on overdrive cus I am defiant

Call me Lioness cus my heart is known as stronger,

Say that you’ve bin fighting but I’ve known this shit for longer,

My heart is with those whose names I do not know,

But at night I see it in their eyes, there is fear & it grows,

Because their homes were bombed & now their children cry,

& nobody understands cus everybody’s hearing lies,

So I feel to fight with every breathe that I take,

Fighting for their justice, I’ll pave me a way

I’ll fight for your Liberation & I’ll die in its name,

As long as something that I do takes away some pain,

Every day that I live is leaving me ashamed,

Because the people for whom I speak are still going un-named.

Those who were brought up around insanity & sadness,

Made something out of nothing, dealt with the madness,

And I don’t do this for the happy guy, I’ll tell you why,

Cus every child that dies feels like a child of mine,

Carry the burden of those who have left so near to my heart

Everything that pains me leaves another mark,

But a Lioness holds her pride in her blood,

So I pray for all of those who died & are above,

Seek for your sister & you’ll see me by your side,

I promise that to you, & with a promise I won’t lie,
