Hayley Williams has shared an empowering new song today, 'Roses/Lotus/Violet/Iris', lifted from her upcoming solo album, 'Petals For Armor', which is set for release in May.

The song features backing vocals from Boygenius (Phoebe Bridgers, Julien Baker, and Lucy Dacus) who Williams describes as "3 of the incredible women who i get to know and grow alongside in this life."

The song sees Williams tackle ideas around growth and embracing self-worth, and first shared the lyrics for the song on International Women's Day:

happy women’s day. in honor of my personal journey through femininity, with it’s endless facets; and in honor of the feminine wonder that connects literally everyone and everything, i want to share lyrics for an unreleased song called “Roses/Lotus/Violet/Iris”. pic.twitter.com/dfP4lgdOck
