Pearl:
I do it for her,
And I would do it again.
I do it for her, and that is why
I’m going to win.

Keep my stance wide,
Keep my body lowered.
I’ll keep moving forward,
Onwards like a blur.
One step, two steps,
Bolting ever faster.
And if I ever falter,
I’ll stay fixed on her.

Rose:
Keep your eyes wide,
For their defenses lowered.
Just keep facing forward--

Pearl:
Look out, Rose!
You almost got hit!

Rose:
One step, two steps.
Put your heart and soul into it!
There’s too much on the line, my friends,
We cannot fall

On this battlefield,
We’re surrounded by chaos.
But if you ever have need of me, you’ll have my shield and my sword.
You just have faith in why we fight this horrible war.
That’s how you stay sure,
It’s why you never give in.
And you’ll concur,
Without a doubt,
That we’re going to win.

Pearl:
She says we must defend this whole planet.
But I just can’t help but ask exactly why.
What I don’t know is its hidden value.
It’s just some worthless rock, but then again,
So am I.

Deep down, I know that I’m just a cheap Gem.

Rose:
Pearl!

But I know that I can draw my sword and fight.
With my base existence,

Rose:
Please stop.

Pearl:
I can make a difference.

Rose:
You already do!

Pearl:
I can be there for you,
I can be her knight.

I can do it for her,
Yes I do it for her,
And I’d do it again.
I do it for her, and that is why I’m going to win.
I know I say this all the time, but this one I actually have been working on for a while; pretty much since 'Sworn to the Sword'. It just got to a point where I kept prioritizing other projects over it, either because I'd been working on them for longer or for the sake of variety. But I finally got it out!

I figure this one is pretty self-explanatory. There mere nature of 'Do It For Him' played to the idea that there was another song under the surface, and Pearl was just projecting(aha, get it?) her own feelings onto Connie. This is that song, as I see it. 

link As per usual, I recommend putting the original on in the background as you sing this to yourself. Put yourself in the moment.

As always, I love feedback(even the negative stuff; no way I can grow if I don't know what I'm doing wrong) and questions. And please, if you like what I've done here and want to cover it, DO SO. Nothing would make me happier! Just credit me and give me a heads up when it's posted.
