lyrics

The deciding factor of a woman's plight/ left up to men with no sight to a woman's mind or a
woman's soul/ He controls, she is controlled/

They control our bodies, decide our fate/ Control our minds driven by hate/ Their hate for women
and the rights we demand/ They want to control, they want to command/
Control our bodies decide our fate/ Control our minds driven by hate/Their hate for women and
the rights we demand/ They want to control, they want to command/

It's not often thought of and its usually dismissed/ So its up to us to show it exists/ We've pushed
it all under tucked it deep inside/ But the damage it does isn't easy to hide/

Women deal with it everyday/ the pain it cause won't go away/ It grows stronger with every
breath/ The end result is emotional death/

We learn to live with it, we choose to pretend/ Hoping in our ignorance the pain will end/ If we
deny the anger, deny the pain/ The hatred we feel will drive us insane/
Then one day we come to see, we aren't who we pretend to be/ we won't be passive or deny our
pain/ Won't take abuse for another's gain/

Then one day we come to see, we aren't who we pretend to be/ we won't be passive or deny the
pain/ Won't take abuse for another's gain/
Control our bodies decide our fate/ Control our minds driven by hate/Their hate for women and
the rights we demand/ They want to control, they want to command/

Songs are sung and that's a start/ But it doesn't change what's in our hearts/ Words are said and
the lyrics rhyme/ but the pain we feel doesn't lessen in time/ Women deal with it everyday/ the
pain it cause won't go away/ It grows stronger with every breath/ The end result is emotional
death/

Men make laws and women abide/ We feel so helpless we run and hide/ It's not only our rights
being stolen away/ But a bit of each of us is lost everyday/
Then one day we come to see, we aren't who we pretend to be/ we won't be passive or deny the
pain/ Won't take abuse for another's gain
