[Verse 1: Kia Castillo]

Treading water, my head goes underneath

They told me that I should breathe in deep

When they crawl back, we're not hearing their apology

[Pre-Chorus: Kia Castillo]

They said that one was enough and that's all you get

It's fine, everything's in your head

Well, I've got thick skin

So I cut my teeth on their glass ceiling

[Chorus: Kia Castillo]

We're in the fight of our lives, we came from the bottom

There's no keeping us down

In the fight of our lives, we won't be forgotten

Do you hеar us now?

So cut our tongues from our throats

Drain my blood, break my bones

You'rе not in control

In the fight of our lives, you'll be forgotten

So keep the gate 'cause we're coming for the throne

[Verse 2: Kia Castillo]

Stack the odds right up against me

Call this pigeon-hole opportunity

Head full of dreams

While we're begging for scraps from the powers that be

[Pre-Chorus: Kia Castillo]

Pass the buck from your left to your right hand

Someone's problem, that's no skin off your back

We don't come this far to just get this far

So we'll take the ace from your house of cards

[Chorus: Kia Castillo]

We're in the fight of our lives, we came from the bottom

There's no keeping us down

In the fight of our lives, we won't be forgotten

Do you hear us now?

So cut our tongues from our throats

Drain my blood, break my bones

You're not in control

In the fight of our lives, you'll be forgotten

So keep the gate 'cause we're coming for the throne

[Bridge: Janel Monique, with Kia Castillo]

The king of the castle won't open the door

But the fire burns brighter than ever before

This is where history is rewrote

We will not be ignored

We will not be ignored

We will not be ignored

[Pre-Chorus: Kia Castillo]

Maybe with heaven's help

You'll finally ask yourself

What the hell made you think you were ever a king?

[Chorus: Kia Castillo, with Janel Monique]

We're in the fight of our lives, we came from the bottom

There's no keeping us down

In the fight of our lives, we won't be forgotten

Do you hear us now?

So cut our tongues from our throats

Drain my blood, break my bones

You're not in control

In the fight of our lives, you'll be forgotten

So keep the gate 'cause we're coming for the throne
