"Speak softer"

"Dress nicer"

"Smile harder"

"Look smaller"

again...

and

again...

I am not nor have I ever been quiet.

My inside voice was my protest song.

I will not stand still confined to the space society has crafted for me.

Look at me rise through the ceiling of glass.

Watch it shatter as the Rosie's did before me

The protest marches on

"We Can Do It"

Takes on a new form

We have choice

We have a voice

We will not hide

We will demand to be treated with equality

2018 and we're still in this shit, fighting the ignorance

Commanding the streets, hear the thunder of our feet

You grab where you please, thinking you can silence a warrior,

but what you don't know is this pussy is a lioness

and nothing you do or say will stop our mighty roar!

For We Are Woman!
