bri ray - woman lyrics

Loading...

let him use you
let him whistle at you on the street
he’s got needs too
and you’re nothing but a fresh piece of meat
as a woman
just a woman

when he calls you
better answer before he hears ring three
why respect you
when he’s everything that you’ll never be
as a woman
oh a woman

sit up straighter
make sure you cater
to what he wants
dim your fire
it’s not proper
to be bright when he’s not

as a woman

when you argue
just know he’s right
because (and) you’ll never see
the world from his shoes
don’t be naive in think you’re tell free
as a woman
oh a woman
you’re a woman
just a woman

sit up straighter
make sure you cater
to what he wants
dim your fire
it’s not proper
to be bright when he’s not

spoken word:

this is not a s-x issue
but a power issue

born by the belief
that he has immediate rights
to our jobs, our dreams
our minds, and our bodies

a belief fed by the fear that if we speak, he is all they will hear

a belief that solidifies each time we are criticized, then obey when told to “sit still and be quiet”

change will not come silently
speak
invest in your right to human decency
speak
you can be known without being touched
speak
please do not link that kind of pain to love
speak

there is power in numbers
there is power in women
invest in your voice. know your choice
speak until they hear you
and let us speak with you
