[Verse 1]
She learned to read a room
back when doors were slammed, not held
Turned every broken thing
into something she could sell
Paint on her fingers
clay on her jeans
Stitching up her story
into something that sings
[Chorus]
She walks in like that
Head high, heart gold
Soft eyes, steel soul
Every "no" she heard
turned to diamonds in her throat
She walks in like that
Grace in every step she takes
You can see the storms she’s faced
She’s a woman made of class and faith
And she walks in like that
[Verse 2]
Used to hide her hands
from the shaking and the scars
Now she signs the checks
buys her mama nicer cars
Kids in the front row
know her by her name
She just laughs and says
"Baby, you can do the same"
[Chorus]
She walks in like that
Head high, heart gold
Soft eyes, steel soul
Every "no" she heard
turned to diamonds in her throat
She walks in like that
Grace in every step she takes
You can see the storms she’s faced
She’s a woman made of class and faith
And she walks in like that
[Bridge]
She ain’t what happened to her
She’s what she chose to do
Turned all that hurt to power
Now the room bends to her truth (oh yeah)
They lean in when she’s talking
Stand up when she’s through
’Cause everybody knows
she’s living proof
[Chorus]
She walks in like that
Head high, heart gold
Soft eyes, steel soul
Every "no" she heard
turned to diamonds in her throat
She walks in like that
Grace in every step she takes
You can feel the ground just change
She’s the sun after the rain
Yeah, she walks in like that
