How to remove fabric paint from shirt?

I had bought some red fabric paint to write lyrics on one of my shirts. However, it turned out I wrote them too high so my hair covers most of it.



Anyways, I know it says you can only remove the fabric paint before washing, but I have already washed the shirt. I've tried removing it now but it's really hard.



Any suggestions on what to use?
