sirani avedis - rainbow womon lyrics

where do you belong now
hey rainbow lady?
your identity has always been shaky
not as white as any caucasian maiden
not as black as any afro+american
well you just don’t know how to behave
raised to be no more than an ornamental slave
and now you’re struggling for something to be
but finding just where you fit in ain’t easy
cause you’re a rainbow woman, yeah
rainbow woman, rainbow woman
rainbow woman

so you find yourself a good cause to borrow
at a loss to recognize your own sorrow
all your life you’ve lived without validation
in your new american dislocation

well you’ve been called by a million names
they just can’t seem to remember
from whеre it is you came
and now you’re tirеd of the ignorant brands
so listen everybody
while i shout out who i am
oh, i’m a rainbow woman, yeah, a rainbow woman
rainbow woman, rainbow woman
now you’re finally flying
you just might get through
if you don’t let them define or crucify you
when the laughter rises, you can’t refuse it
you’ve a righteous cry and now you are finally gonna use it

well you’ve been harnessed
but you’re breaking the chain
you come from a heritage of genocide and pain
and you fought hard when they told you you were wrong
and even today you sing the gutsiest song
you’ve got your own gospel, woman
you’ve got your own culture, woman
you’ve got your own suffering, woman
you’re your own rainbow woman
rainbow woman, rainbow woman, yeah
rainbow, rainbow woman
