Don't Give a Damn

Grew up in the back row, out of sight, out of mind

Hand-me-down dreams and nickels for dimes

You looked right past me, but I saw it all

Fake Sunday smiles and big fish, small pond

Never fit your picture, never followed your plan

Kept my fire on low, but I'm turning up again

You preach from your pulpit, poison the well

I was forged in the fire, got my own story to tell

You can keep your rules and your crooked crown

'Cause there's a new wind risin', burnin' through this town

I don't give a damn 'bout your rules and your lines

Been broken, been burned, but I'm drawing mine

Gonna shout for the lost, for the left-behind

Raise up the roof 'til the truth can shine

I don't give a damn, no I don't give a damn

I'm wild and I'm free, I'm takin' my stand

They said "act like a lady," keep your eyes on the floor

But I kicked down the doors they said not to go toward

You use your money and power to keep us in line

But you can't crush a heart that was built to survive

For every girl in the shadows, every boy on the run

For every soul overlooked, for everyone

There's a wildfire coming, yeah, you better believe

We ain't asking permission, we're claiming what's ours to keep

You can keep your rules and your crooked crown

'Cause there's a new wind risin', burnin' through this town

I don't give a damn 'bout your rules and your lines

Been broken, been burned, but I'm drawing mine

Gonna shout for the lost, for the left-behind

Raise up the roof 'til the truth can shine

I don't give a damn, no I don't give a damn

I'm wild and I'm free, I'm takin' my stand

This is for the underdogs, the tired and the torn

For every soul that's been broken and worn

There's a rumble comin'—can you hear that sound?

Maggie's wild army, we ain't backing down

Shout it from the rooftops, light up the dark

We built these streets with our battle-scarred hearts

Ain't scared of your thunder, ain't scared to be seen

This wild child's marching and I'm leading the scene

I don't give a damn 'bout your rules and your lines

Been broken, been burned, but I'm drawing mine

Gonna shout for the lost, for the left-behind

Raise up the roof 'til the truth can shine

I don't give a damn, no I don't give a damn

I'm wild and I'm free, I'm takin' my stand

They said sit down and hush, but I was born loud

This is for the wild ones—stand up, stand proud
