Strong Woman |
When I was young |
I wanted to be Jon |
It wasn’t hard |
Short hair, no curves to speak of |
I could do things |
I couldn’t do as Jen |
Ride bikes with boys |
Kiss girls and make some noise |
I grew to be |
A Young Lady |
Catholic Girls School |
Will try to do that to you |
Never fit in |
To love was to live in sin |
So I stood out |
I was born to let it out |
This world it wasn’t made for women |
You know even before you’re bleeding |
I’m sorry, can’t you hear me speaking? |
How is it now, now that I’m screaming? |
I know |
I am a Strong Woman |
Never questioned |
My strength it was passed on |
Proud my Mother wanted respect more than love |
And her mother taught her that she could want for more |
This world it wasn’t made for women |
You know even before you’re bleeding |
I’m sorry, can’t you hear me speaking? |
How is it now, now that I’m screaming? |
I know |
I am a Strong Woman |
Never questioned |
My strength it was passed on |
Proud my Mother wanted respect more than love |
Kia kaha |
Be proud, stay strong |
Go on |
