[Verse 1]
I was born where the blackthorn grows
Red clay under my nails
Grandma’s charms in the kitchen drawer
Old songs riding the gales
I learned prayers
I learned curses
Same breath
Same tongue
Holy water in a whiskey glass
And fire on my lungs (hey!)
[Chorus]
I’m a maid
I’m a witch
I’m a goddess
Bare feet on the heather and stone
I’ll bless you
I’ll hex you
I promise
I carry my power back home
Raise your glass if you’re wild and honest
If they ever tried cutting you down
I’m a maid
I’m a witch
I’m a goddess
And I’m wearing my own damn crown
[Verse 2]
I keep salt by the windowsill
Gold ring on my hand
Cards tucked in my apron pocket
Marking where I stand
I’ll spin thread
I’ll stir thunder
In the very same pot
Kiss your wounds
Call down lightning
Take all that you’re not (oh!)
[Chorus]
I’m a maid
I’m a witch
I’m a goddess
Bare feet on the heather and stone
I’ll bless you
I’ll hex you
I promise
I carry my power back home
Raise your glass if you’re wild and honest
If they ever tried cutting you down
I’m a maid
I’m a witch
I’m a goddess
And I’m wearing my own damn crown
[Bridge]
They said “Sit still
Stay small
Be quiet”
I danced louder than their choir
They said “Good girls don’t call the storms”
I walked straight into the fire (hey!)
[Chorus]
I’m a maid
I’m a witch
I’m a goddess
Bare feet on the heather and stone
I’ll bless you
I’ll hex you
I promise
I carry my power back home
Raise your glass if you’re wild and honest
If they ever tried cutting you down
I’m a maid
I’m a witch
I’m a goddess
And I’m wearing my own damn crown
