Feminism is not really what you think
in the 20's girls wanted to vote and drink
and have the right to ***** like men
go after what we wanted again and again
It was having the choice to go after a career
and suing every guy who looks at our rear
Feminism was a cry for equality
for attention that was high quality
not to be traded like cows or goats
not seen as fragile ladies in castles with moats
we wanted to be known for our brains and smarts
and in so doing, did we give up our hearts?
Now all we want is a man who is real
honest and brave, not afraid to feel
they are too scared now because we are tough
now men never feel like they are enough
We used to rule men with our gentle love
they used to rule us with God's gifts from above
Equality we had, but we just didn't know
wherever we went, they would follow
by the power of female, we made them men
now they just want to feel that again
Love can help us not fight anymore
show them their worth, put a stop to this war

I went out into the country to go for a walk
I'd heard about this place with the beautiful view
but so many people had heard this talk
there were crowds of them not just a few

discouraged I got myself back in the car
I'd wanted to go and find peace outside
fortunately, I didn't have to go far
to find somewhere quiet where I could hide

I pulled down this road that said "dead end"
and I almost turned around and went back
but I didn't want to follow everyone's trend
and then I saw it, a little old track

so I hopped the fence and followed it down
green and lush with a white butterfly
followed the path to the river's sound
and there in the grass this little bridge lie

so covered in moss it blended right in
with logs for it's sides on railroad ties
and there I gave Jesus all of my sin
I told Him the truth and spared all my lies

I had the choice to follow the rest
to this view on a mountain up in the sun
but following God, leads to the best
they're all competing, but I felt like I'd won

I am free just like a bird
no filter on these lips
I must be heard
a few cuss word slips
no big deal
I do what I want
I'm keepin it real

I'm free to drink
and party all night
free to think
and I'm free to fight
I'll show you what
if you disrespect me
knife to the gut

Nobody rules me
I am my own
I'm totally free
'cause I'm full grown
I sleep with my choice
I drink when I want
always use my voice

addicted to the opinions of others
you come first, don't count on brothers
living in a cage of expectations
in this life there are no vacations
it's dog eat dog and you must win
don't realize your trapped by all that sin?
free to drink? or a slave to the bottle?
free to do drugs and drive at full throttle?
to impress some girl, who wants your money
you're not free, you're a slave to her, honey
a slave to what everyone wants you to give
but you are not free, you don't know how to live
to be free is to know exactly who you are
when you know that, then you can go far
you think you're exercising your right to decide
but what you are doing has trapped you inside
you're a scared little person that nobody knows
and neither do you, and you're afraid that it shows
so let go of the women, the money and *****
because you actually do get to choose
so choose to be free from the judgment of others
and join us, God's children, your sisters and brothers.

You are ******* up, but I am too
everybody tells me not to love you
I see myself reflected in your blue eyes
I hear myself speaking in all of your lies
I feel myself connected to your heart
even when we're on oceans far apart
I see the anger and hurt in your soul
girls want to change you that is their goal
to fix you because you're so broken inside
then to run off and be somebody else's bride
You are not a damaged project to me
you're just the guy that I love, can't you see?
I feel like we are so much the same
so it baffles me why we're still playing this game
with me I know you can be totally free
and with you I just want to also be me

Politics politics all over the place
it's everywhere all up in your face
we talk about it when we don't know squat
everyone with opinions it happens a lot
humans presented like bright colored birds
puffed up flinging around lots of big words
you must vote for me 'cause I am the best
you'll make lots of money with plenty of rest
the government will solve all of your strife
and give you everything you want out of life
don't vote for that guy, he is just dumb
vote for me so you can carry your gun
don't vote for him, or you must keep that baby
you were ***** and he'll be a drug dealer maybe
if you vote for one then you have a choice
but only the choices that each came to voice
the sad thing is, they're all somewhat wrong
democracy lasts a few years then it's gone
we all came to listen to them taunt
freedom is the thing we all really want
freedom from fear and our financial woe
freedom to go wherever we want to go
freedom won't come from voting just right
from your perfect candidate winning the fight
freedom comes from God up above
freedom comes from accepting His love
freedom is inside you in all circumstances
so vote for Jesus, and you don't have to take chances

how does it feel up there alone?
no regret, no remorse no drive to atone
watching the world revolve around
speak lots of words to hear the sound
they all leave, one after another
driven away, just like every other
why do they go when you push away
why can't they just put up and stay
push them away so they don't get close
especially the ones you love the most
don't think you deserve the attention they give
so you do you and they'll just have to live
violently strike out in temper so bright
always equipped and ready to fight
if they accuse, judge and frustrate
then you feel fine with all of your hate
you want to be loved but lash out in fear
nobody sees that but to me its quite clear
Jesus is there and He'll take all your pain
He never gives up, loves again and again
so go on ahead, and let go and cry
He won't give up, and neither will I.

Just a republican girl
living in a liberal world
took the 4Runner going anywhere
Just a democrat boy
living in a conservative world
took the white Prius going anywhere

A singer in a smokey room
the marijuana's like perfume
for a puff they can share the night
it goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting
the traffic on the 5's insane
the endless cars stretch through the night
streetlights, people
there's no escaping anywhere
hide me somewhere in the night

too many beards and beer
there are "rainbows" everywhere
politics are in your face
all the time
some will win, some will lose
there are only reds or blues
the fighting never ends
it goes on and on and on and on

Strangers, waiting
the traffic on the 5's insane
the endless cars stretch through the night
streetlights, people
there's no escaping anywhere
hide me somewhere in the night

don't stop believing
that you can escape the city
street lights, people
don't care at allllll

don't stop believing
that you can escape the city
street lights, people
don't care at allllll

don't stop believing
that you can escape the city
street lights, people
don't care at allllll
