d.o. gibson - one woman can change the world lyrics

one woman can change the world lyrics
[verse 1]
i’m sitting here looking at this ten+dollar bill
thinking what would my grandmama say…still
because ‘fore there was rosa, we had viola
a black female entrepreneur from scotia
they wouldn’t let her into school but that wouldn’t stop her
so she went to learn from madam cj walker
the first black female millionaire
couldn’t learn here… so she went down there
she was on a business trip + car broke down
so she stopped at the movie theatrе when she sat down
she stood up, causе when they told her that she had to move
she wouldn’t, they even locked her up too
you might not have heard ‘til it came out in the news
carrie best was a writer, first black publisher too
fast forward and viola’s sister grew
wanda robson wanted to make sure that everybody knew
lieutenant governer gave her the pardon + mayann francis
set wheels in motion… it was startin’
are you seeing?
how a black woman giving another black woman freedom
look at these achievements
from black woman in nova scotia, but it isn’t a surprise
i’ve seen it
in my family, and throughout history
so many women have changed the world + literally
so this is for my daughter too… you know what you gotta do
[hook]
one woman can change the world
one woman can change the world
one woman can change the world
i know that you will and what you can be
focus on your big dreams, never plan b
don’t listen to no one, to no man
cause you know that
one woman can change the world

[verse 2]
shoutout coretta scott king
and every young girl with a dream
in canada we wouldn’t know what it means
if we didn’t have women like jean augustine
she’s the reason we celebrate black history month
it was only 1995, that it was done
and now they want black woman on the 20
harriet tubman spent many years here helping plenty
and since we all came from a woman
got our name from a woman, it’s time to celebrate our women!
it’s only right to honor…
i love barack… but he wouldn’t be there without mich+lle obama
yeah this is for the mothers…
raisin kids, it doesn’t matter the color
there’s no way we can pay you back
but the plan is to show you that i understand
you are appreciated
