This is about empowerment, a sense of identity, and strength in the realization of those two things.

I am the story of someone buried underground…

I am the answer to the riddle, “Who fell down?”

I am the threshold beneath the open door,

And I am the cure.

So open the windows, and watch as the shadows disappear!

Break your formations, Speak to the nations, and they will hear:

I am a sparrow, I am an arrow, I am a song-

I am a sinner, I am Virginia, and I am strong.

There was a lady in pretty ribbons, with pins in her hair;

She had a meltdown, let her braids out, and stopped being scared.

So pick up your pencils, and write out the answer,

‘Cause I will not stand down, I will not surrender-

They thought when they pushed me I’d fall from the tower,

But I can just fly away, ’cause I have the power,

 

‘Cause I am a sparrow, I am an arrow, I am a song-

I am a sinner, I am Virginia, and I am strong.
