Endangered Species |
| I am an endangered species |
| But I sing no victim’s song |
| I am a woman I am an artist |
| And I know where my voice belongs |
| I am a woman I exist |
| I shake my fist but not my hips |
| My skin is dark my body is strong |
| I sign of rebirth no victim’s song |
| I am an endangered species |
| But I sing no victim’s song |
| I am a woman I am an artist |
| And I know where my voice belongs |
| They cut out my sex they bind my feet |
| Silence my reflex no tongue to speak |
| I work in the fields I work in the store |
| I type up the deals and I mop the floors |
| I am an endangered species |
| But I sing no victim’s song |
| I am a woman I am an artist |
| And I know where my voice belongs |
| My body is fertile I bring life about |
| Drugs, famine, and war, take them back out |
| My husband can beat me his right they say |
| And rape isn’t rape you say I like it that way |
| I am an endangered species |
| But I sing no victim’s song |
| I am a woman I am an artist |
| And I know where my voice belongs |
| I know where my soul belongs |
| I know where I belong |
