G             Am 
She was raised by wolves, 
       Em              C     
In the warmth of their fur. 
   G          Am 
Surrounded by fangs, 
         Em           C 
She knew that she was secure. 

   G          Am 
Language barriers 
        Em            C 
Made no difference at all. 
            G        Am 
When you're truly cared for, 
        Em             C 
There's no purpose for walls. 

     G           Am 
His fences stood tall 
         Em         C 
As the shoulders of old. 
       G              Am 
But he dreamt that one day 
      Em             C 
Maybe he'd break the mold. 

         G            Am 
But time shyly stands still 
         Em         C 
When you watch it unfold. 
           G      Am 
From these ivory towers 
     Em           C 
Freedom is only a ghost. 

G        Bm 
Right or wrong, 
        F#       D 
Tension makes us stronger 
   C         Em     
By making us weak 
C                 D 
When we needed to be. 

      G       Bm 
Privilege and pain 
          F#           D      
When compared look the same. 
      C          Em 
Comprehension begins 
C                      D 
When we pull back the lens. 

     G              Am 
They made her their queen 
       Em          C 
On the day she was born. 
            G         Am 
They placed on her a crown 
           Em      C 
She wasn't ready for. 

          G        Am 
But all impossible odds 
    Em         C 
Foreshadow our means, 
     G        Am 
Like paving a road 
        Em              C 
To kingdoms we've never seen. 

   G           Am 
He woke up one day, 
        Em         C 
Written out of the will. 
           G         Am 
They swore he'd be okay, 
            Em       C 
With lesser shoes to fill. 

      G            Am 
"What doesn't kill us 
         Em               C 
Makes us stronger, " they say. 
    G         Am 
Our only birthright in this life 
       Em             C 
Is the breath that we take. 

G        Bm 
Right or wrong, 
        F#       D 
Tension makes us stronger 
   C         Em     
By making us weak 
C                 D 
When we needed to be. 

      G       Bm 
Privilege and pain 
          F#           D      
When compared look the same. 
      C          Em 
Comprehension begins 
        C              Em 
When we pull back the lens. 

    D                G 
Our fables tell our truths.
