solidarity not silence - this is sisterhood lyrics
[intro: kathleen hanna, spoken]
it’s called hashtag solidarity not silence
women have spoken out against this person
and because they spoke up, this ++++ is suing them and they have no money to fight it
[verse 1]
in 2016 we spoke about a man
some of us ex+girlfriends and some of us in bands
he’s filed a claim saying that he’s been defamed
he sent us legal letters few days before christmas day
demanding us to take back what we posted, what we said
to publicly apologise and bury our heads
but we will not shut up! hе can’t silence us
hand in hand we stand, bеlieve and we have trust
[pre+chorus]
for speaking our truth, supporting other women
for staying true to my feminism
for using my platform for the greater good
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
[chorus]
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand
[verse 2]
it’s 2019, we’re still fighting for freedom
i don’t know how much longer we’re gonna be bleeding
the impact that it’s had on our mental health is bad
suffering in silence, anonymous, alone
the costs are piling up and there is no legal aid
more and more i feel our strength and i am less afraid
that nasty little f+cker had so many different faces
but could set the precedence for future cases
[pre+chorus]
for speaking our truth, supporting other women
for staying true to my feminism
for using my platform for the greater good
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
[chorus]
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand
[bridge: ren aldridge, spoken]
so how many will have to speak (ooh)
for what we say to be believed? (ooh)
and how are we meant to protect ourselves (ooh)
with services cut and the law failing us? (ooh)
tale’s as old as f+cking time (ooh)
problem’s more than industry+wide (ooh)
when will the reputation of men (ooh)
stop being valued over our safety?
[chorus]
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand (i stand)
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand (i stand)
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood
i stand (i stand)
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood (you can’t silence me)
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood (it’s time to face up to the music, you can’t hide)
i stand in solidarity, this is sisterhood (can’t hush me, stop me)
i stand (break free)
