[Verse 1] Desert dust on my feet A crown gone cold in the sand My father fell at the gate Now I run with an empty hand Purple fire in my braid I hide my face in the sun They call me orphan, girl, stray But I know what I’ve become [Pre-Chorus] Hear the storm under skin Hear it knocking to get out Every bruise that they left Turns to thunder in my mouth [Chorus] Thunder in her hands Thunder in her hands I was born from the sand Now the sky knows my name Thunder in her hands Thunder in her hands I rise back from the grave And I won’t be the same [Verse 2] Eyes on me from the ridge Black banners tracking my steps I cross the salt and the stone With the fear I never left Old women speak in the well Of a bloodline lost in flame Dragon hearts in my veins And a roar I cannot tame [Pre-Chorus] Hear the storm under skin Hear it wake with every scar Every secret they hid Puts a spark into my heart [Chorus] Thunder in her hands Thunder in her hands I was born from the sand Now the sky knows my name Thunder in her hands Thunder in her hands I rise back from the grave And I won’t be the same [Bridge] I found my face in the fire I found my voice in the rain The ones who made me a shadow Now kneel to the heat I became I built a throne from the ashes I wore the crown like a blaze But they wrote me out of the story Till the dark ones stole my fame [Final Chorus] Thunder in her hands Thunder in her hands I was born from the sand Now the sky knows my name Thunder in her hands Thunder in her hands I rise back from the grave And I won’t be the same Thunder in her hands Thunder in her hands They forgot the desert queen But the storm remembers me
