The Lioness |
| They said that times were hard for honest men |
| But she didn’t give a damn because she wasn’t one of them |
| I don’t mean to imply that she ever told a lie |
| But she was raised in the harem and told to keep quiet |
| She isn’t gonna hide her face anymore |
| She isn’t gonna know her place anymore |
| Married off young and set aside |
| Huda always burned bright, she wasn’t one to hide |
| She taught herself languages and poetry |
| She taught herself to speak so she could set herself free |
| Look on her works, ye mighty men |
| She opened up the harem, they can’t close it up again |
| She stepped off a ledge and let herself fall free |
| She stepped off the train and into history |
| She isn’t gonna hide her face anymore |
| She isn’t gonna know her place anymore |
| She isn’t gonna hide her face anymore |
| She isn’t gonna know her place anymore |
| Huda Sha’arawi was the Lioness' name |
| A heart well-fed, eyes aflame |
| A face uncovered showing what she overcame |
| Huda is the Lioness, she won’t be tamed |
| She isn’t gonna hide her face anymore |
| She isn’t gonna know her place anymore |
| She isn’t gonna hide her face anymore |
| She isn’t gonna know her place anymore |
| She isn’t gonna hide her face |
| Everyone should know her name |
| She isn’t gonna know her place |
| The Lioness will not be tamed |
| She isn’t gonna hide her face |
| Everyone should know her name |
| She isn’t gonna know her place |
| The Lioness will not be tamed |
