Every other lyric of Red Like Roses describes a RWBY team member and Ruby's lyric is the only one that doesn't hint at her fairy tale character. People take Blake as being a reference to Belle from Beauty and the Beast because of the lyric "Black the Beast" and then point to Adam as Beast, but Adam's color is Red and he isn't the one who is on Team RWBY. It is only consistent if Blake (Black) is the Beast being described in the lyric. The most sensible way in the RWBYverse for her to be "the Beast" is for her to be a Fauna. Her being a reference to Belle just doesn't make a whole lot of sense in that context. Mabye she's both the beauty AND the beast? remember that book? "its about a man with two souls, and both are fighting for control over his body"
