Girls Are So Brave (Donia's song)

Something I observed
Every little girl
Is a superhero just 'cause
She exists in this world

She's so brave
She's so brave
Ay she's so (hold up)
Girls are so brave

Showing us how to live a better way
Heroically
The horrors persist every day
But so does she

She's so brave
She's so brave
Girls are so (say it)
Girls are so brave

South side of Gaza Strip
In the city of Khan Younis
A little girl with a dream and parents
Who believe she gotta pursue it

Yeah she living in a prison
She wanna improve it
Positive every morning
Waking up like y'all let's do it

Her name is Donia
She love her family so much
To make 'em proud
She gonna be a doctor when she grow up

The whole world that she know of
Is kids suffering in pain
She wanna bring in some relief
Like a pitching change

She a born winner
Opposite of a sinner
Couldn't wait to get back
To school in September

In her parents' eyes
She might be headed to a Ivy
So they let her get some new threads
Like it's IG

Back to school she styling on 'em
It felt like heaven yo
But we know that that would go
Straight to hell on the 7th though

A war of self-defense against a girl
That's only 12 years old
Paradox
Like a couple medical professionals

It's truly absurd
We like kids pay the price
What did Donia ever do
To deserve this way of life

One night while they were sleeping
The house got bombed
She woke up ran to dad
And then she found her mom

Who was with her little sis
They hugged and then she went to go
Find her missing siblings
And that's when the second missile hit

She came to, looked around
Saw her father bleeding
But got surrounded by a crowd
That took her in for treatment

After a few days pass at Al-Nasr
She learns she lost
A brother, a sister
Her mom and her dad

And they took her leg
But that brave girl didn't let that stop her
More determined than ever
To be one hell of a doctor

But when they shelled the hospital
And everything around it
Donia's was one of
The dozens of bodies found in it

So next time we get loud
With that "never again"
Always remember
Donia Ayed Abu Moshen

Something I observed
Every little girl
Is a superhero just 'cause
She exists in this world

She's so brave
She's so brave
Ay she's so (hold up)
Girls are so brave

Showing us how to live a better way
Heroically
The horrors persist every day
But so does she

She's so brave
She's so brave
Girls are so (say it)
Girls are so brave
