Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let it begin, let Adam in, step one original sin
Underneath the leaves Adam found Eve
Both of them found something sweet under the apple tree
Then it was over, roads divide
Step two, learning how to lie
Let me ask a question to present day
How the hell did Eve end up with all the damn blame?
All the damn blame
[Verse 2]
To all the dirty looks, the kitty cat calls
To the ones who try and throw us up against the back walls
Let me tell you something you'll understand
Only the little boys tell you they're a big man
To all my sisters and all our friends
We have to thank them, please
Strength means blessed with an enemy
[Verse 3]
Oh my, my, my, my armor comes from you
You make me try, try, try, try harder, oh, that's all I ever do, ever do
Oh no, no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you
You make me stronger, stronger, now hand me my armor
(Hand me my armor, hand me my armor)
[Verse 4]
Step three
I see the unforgettable, incredible ones who came before me
Brought poetry, brought science, sowed quiet seeds of self-reliance
Bloomed in me so here I am
You think I am high, mighty mister
Wait till you meet my little sister
[Verse 5]
Oh my, my, my, my armor comes from you
You make me try, try, try, try harder, oh, that's all I ever do, ever do
Oh no, no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you
You make me stronger, stronger, now hand me my armor
[Verse 6]
What you didn't do to bury me
But you didn't know I was a goddamn seed
You don't scare me, I am of the earth
So tired of your empire
Blind men only set the world on fire
Sad you can't see it
You broke the flame, here comes the phoenix
[Verse 7]
You make me try harder, oh, it's all I ever do, ever do
Oh my, my, my, my armor comes from you
You make me stronger, stronger (Hand me my armor)
[Verse 8]
Oh my, my, my, my armor comes from you
You make try, try, try, try harder, oh, that's all I ever do, ever do
Oh no, no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you
You make me stronger, stronger
Hand me my armor
[Verse 9]
(Hand me my armor)
(Hand me my armor)
(Hand me my armor)
(Hand me my armor)
[Verse 10]
Hand me my armor (Hand me my)
Hand me my armor
Hand me my armor
Hand me my armor
