Fight Like A Girl

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 'em 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 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 'em 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"
 Whoa, with style and grace
 Kick ass and take names
 Ten years of climbin' that ladder
 Ooh, 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)
