I am a girl, a wellspring of might,
I am a girl, hear my claim of right,
I am a girl, I feel no fear,
I am a girl, my voice you will hear.
You are not a man if your weapon is scorn,
You are not a man, a battle you've torn,
You are not a man, do you think you can wound?
We will rise, and we'll fight, on hallowed ground.
Step aside, let me breathe, let me be,
Recognize me, let me be free,
My heart is pure, God is my witness true,
What is poison to you, is medicine for me and you.
I grieve that our paths now diverge and stray,
The question remains, did you forget the way?
At this crossroads where we now convene,
A new choice unfolds, joy or sorrow, the scene?
My honor, your venom, it cannot suppress,
I am woman, and I fear no distress,
My honor, your venom, it cannot suppress,
I am woman, and I fear no distress.
I am a girl, a wellspring of might,
I am a girl, hear my claim of right,
I am a girl, I feel no fear,
I am a girl, my voice you will hear.
You are not a man if your weapon is scorn,
You are not a man, a battle you've torn,
You are not a man, do you think you can wound?
We will rise, and we'll fight, on hallowed ground.
Enough is enough, we stand on our own,
Every mother, a girl, seeds are sown,
We will not be silenced, as we always have been,
Every woman in the world deserves to win,
I grieve that our paths now diverge and stray,
The question remains, did you forget the way?
At this crossroads where we now convene,
A new choice unfolds, joy or sorrow, the scene?
My honor, your venom, it cannot suppress,
I am woman, and I fear no distress,
My honor, your venom, it cannot suppress,
I am woman, and I fear no distress.
My honor, your venom, it cannot suppress,
I am woman, and I fear no distress,
My honor, your venom, it cannot suppress,
I am woman, and I fear no distress.
