about

Fierce and Fearless is an acknowledgement of the warrior women who stand for something, and fall for nothing. It's a debt of gratitude to the women who stand beside us when we fall, and who come when we call. It's a call to arms to women to stand for each other, and to bring their steel to the fight for justice and unity. It's a call to crash the patriarchy, to burn down misogyny, and to bury sexism under six feet of concrete. It's a song for our time, and a song for our daughters, and nieces and sisters. It's a song for every woman who has every needed to hear... I believe you, I hear you, I'm with you.

lyrics

Fierce & Fearless

Have you got a soul of iron, a backbone made of steel?
Have you got an open heart, to cradle pain you feel?
Have you got a shining love, to light you on your way?
Are you fierce, are you fearless, everyday?
Are you fierce, are you fearless, everyday?

If he stands before you with a smile in his eyes,
Will you trade your freedom for a pocket full of lies?
Will you give your power for a thimble full of praise?
Will you hear him, will you hear him, when he says,
Will you hear him, will you hear him, when he says?

Hide, hide your light.
Don’t let your fire burn bright,
Tell your story under cover of the night.
And for god’s sake woman, don’t you fight.
For god’s sake, don’t you fight.

Will you build the barricade, and will you turn the tide?
Will you find the strength of will to hold on for the ride.
Will you be the voice of women dying to be heard?
Will you witness, will you listen to their words?
Will you witness, will you listen to their words?

Have you got a soul of iron, a backbone made of steel?
Have you got an open heart, to cradle pain you feel?
Have you got a shining love, to light you on your way?
Are you fierce, are you fearless, everyday?
Are you fierce, are you fearless, everyday?

Oooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh.
Oooh ooh, ooh ohh, ooh ooh.
