Prompt / Lyrics
Intro – calm / spoken] They said I was soft… They didn’t know softness can sharpen. ⸻ [Verse 1] I was raised on “be gentle,” “sit still,” “be sweet” Smile for the world, keep peace at your feet They called me a princess, hands folded tight But nobody saw I was learning to fight Not with fists — with patience and will With quiet refusals, with learning “no” still Every tear was a lesson in steel Every heartbreak taught me what’s real They loved me fragile, easy to hold But I felt a fire they never told You can wear silk and still grow scars You can dream big inside small bars ⸻ [Hook / Chorus] I was a crown before I was a blade Grace in my walk, but I’m not afraid I learned my power wasn’t given — it’s made Princess to warrior, unafraid I still shine, I still feel But now I stand, now I heal I don’t need a throne to know I’m real There’s a crown in my bones they can’t steal ⸻ [Verse 2] They thought strength meant losing my light But I kept my glow and learned to fight I didn’t harden, I refined Turned broken glass into a spine Still wear kindness like gold on my skin But now my boundaries are iron within You can’t shame me into shrinking small I learned grace can stand tall I’m not cold, I’m not cruel I just don’t play by their rule Soft voice, strong stance I choose respect, not chance ⸻ [Bridge – slower / emotional rise] I didn’t lose the girl I was I gave her armor because… She deserved protection too And the only knight she needed grew. ⸻ [Final Hook / Outro – big anthem energy] I was a crown before I was a blade Now I’m both — watch the way I’m made Silk and steel in the same cascade Princess to warrior, never afraid I still dream, I still kneel But I rise, I reveal No kingdom needed for me to feel There’s a crown in my bones — and it’s real.
