D                     G      
She said that lions, were meant for a cage  
D                     G       
She's dulling my claws, and cutting my mane  
D                      G      
Says my teeth are too sharp, it would not be safe  
D                      G      
For me to be out there, roaming the plains  

D   A     G                       D             
All I am is a lion, with a brave heart and a body with some scars  
D  A      G                        D 
All I am is a lion, with a brave heart and a body with some scars  


She said that lions, were meant for a cage 
  
Because of our anger and all of our rage  

But she mistakes this pain for angst  

She says that lions, are all the same  


All I am is a lion, who will try and be strong enough  

All I am is a lion, whose heart is full of love  


She mistakes this pain for angst, that is growing deep inside  

She mistakes this pain for rage, that is growing in my eyes  


All I am is a lion, whose heart is full of love
