Queen of Wolves

I walked through the ashes with my head held high,

Turned every tear into a battle cry.

I’ve faced the shadows,

I’ve stared down the night,

Found my own fire,

found my own light.

The world can call me whatever it chooses,

I know the truth that my heart refuses To bend,

to break, or surrender control— I wear my crown from my heart

to my soul.

I don’t wait for a hand to save me,

I don’t need a hero to claim me.

With my pack beside me,

I’m standing tall,

I built these walls,

I guard them all.

I’m no damsel in distress,

I’m a queen in a wilderness.

I don’t need rescuing,

I know exactly who I am.

I protect and I defend,

With my wolves beside me till the end.

Let the whole world hear my vow—

I save myself, and I do it now.

(do it now)

My wolves keep watch when the cold winds rise,

There’s ancient wisdom in their golden eyes.

I know their language,

their fears, their scars,

We found our way by the light of the stars.

They call me leader,

I call them home,

No one among us will stand alone.

But love is not weakness,

and trust is not chains,

We guard each other through sunshine and rain.

I don’t wait for a hand to save me,

I don’t need a hero to claim me.

With my pack beside me,

I’m standing tall,

I built these walls,

I guard them all.

I’m no damsel in distress,

I’m a queen in a wilderness.

I don’t need rescuing,

I know exactly who I am.

I protect and I defend,

With my wolves beside me till the end.

Let the whole world hear my vow—

I save myself,

and I do it now.

(do

it

now)

Don’t mistake my kindness for surrender,

Don’t confuse my heart with something tender That can be taken,

torn, or controlled—

I am steel beneath the gold.

If I choose your hand,

it’s not because I’m weak,

It’s because

I’m strong enough to let you see The kingdom I built,

the life

I command, And the wild that forever lives in my hands.

I’m no damsel in distress,

I’m a queen in a wilderness.

I don’t need rescuing,

I’ve got the power in my hands.

I protect and I defend,

With my wolves beside me till the end.

Let the whole world hear me now—

I wear my crown,

and I know how.

(know how!)

No knight, no savior,

no borrowed flame, Could ever define me or speak my name.

I am the queen,

fierce, free, and blessed,

No damsel in distress.
