Chapter One: Reyna – Warrior
[Verse 1]
This is a story that I have never told
I gotta get this off my chest to let it go
I need to take back the light inside you stole
You're a criminal
And you steal like you're a pro
I have never told anyone – and I mean anyone – that I like (or rather, liked) Jason Grace. And I don't have crushes often.
I need to tell someone… but who can I tell? I am all alone. I have no one to talk to, no one to tell my story to.
I used to have a strong warrior light burning in my heart. But you, Jason, you took that away. I stole that light in my soul, and extinguished it.
You're a criminal, Jason. I may have liked you, but I've moved on. You steal like you're a pro, the golden boy. Even though you didn't intentionally hurt me – I know you never would – but you did anyway.
[Chorus]
All the pain and the truth
I wear like a battle wound
So ashamed, so confused
I was broken and bruised
There is so much pain that I have to bear… and the truth of my feelings almost make me collapse. But I learned how to live with it, how to wear all of that hurt just like another battle wound on my body. When I loved Jason, I was so ashamed and so confused. My entire life, I was running away from love. All that confusion of actually feeling this strange feeling – love - breaks me down more than once.
Now I'm a warrior
Now I've got thicker skin
I'm a warrior
I'm stronger than I've ever been
And my armor, is made of steel, you can't get in
I'm a warrior
And you can never hurt me again
But I can say goodbye to all those conflicting feelings deep inside of me. Because now I'm a true warrior. My armor is made of steel, and nobody can ever get in again. Not even Jason. And so, Jason… you can never hurt me. Ever again.
[Verse 2]
Out of the ashes, I'm burning like a fire
You can save your apologies, you're nothing but a liar
I've got shame, I've got scars
That I will never show
I'm a survivor, in more ways than you know
I'm rising out of the ashes, and I'm coming out burning with energy, with power, with strength. Jason, you can save all those apologies you've said – you're nothing but a liar. I have shame, and I have scars that I received from my past, but I will never show them. I'm a survivor, and in more ways than you can ever imagine.
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
There's a part of me I can't get back
A little girl grew up too fast
All it took was once, I'll never be the same
Now I'm taking back my life today
Nothing left that you can say
'Cause you were never gonna take the blame, anyway
It felt like it was just yesterday when Hylla and I split ways – when my father died at my hands. I was a little girl… scared, alone, lost. And all it took was one "true love", and I am scarred forever. But I don't care. Because I'm taking back my life, that warrior light, today. After all, Jason, you were never going to take the blame.
[Chorus]
So, what do you think? Wonderful? Good? Bad? Rip it up and throw it in the river (hopefully not the last one )?
