First time I was afraid,
I was walking home when a man came to sight
"Why is a pretty girl like you, all alone, in such a cold night?"
I walked faster and arrived home safe,
but my heart was pounding like in a crazy race.

Second time I was afraid,
I was in an island with my friends,
we were having a good time until four men asked us to dance.
What scared me was not the gesture,
but the way they looked us,
as if we were some sort of prize.
They were all married and they all had a child.

Third time I was afraid,
I was listening my sister talking to my parents,
she didn't manage to get the job she so much craved.
The reason behind this was her fresh and lovely marriage
Her future boss thought she would have soon bought a baby carriage.

What scares me the most is that there are going to be more of these times,
and I do not know how they are going to end up like.
We live in a world where we don't feel protected
Where people who have power like to rest on the throne they created.
Our world is fighting, our world is collapsing
and all I hear saying is 'we can't do anything about it'
Many people like to say that we are all the same,
they use words as gender equality,
but only few of them actually take the effort to make it a reality.

Sometimes I wonder if it is all worth it
The things I do, have they any meaning?

But then I look around and see all the beauty this world has
My heart beats faster, and I take a big breath

And then I know, for sure, that I'll never stop fighting
that I'll never let my life get ruined by this stupid society.
