As I walked beside you I realized Oh how different our worlds would be If I were you and you were me
Oh how different our worlds would be I’d hold you and play with your hair While you sang a song as some old dudes stare Oh how different our worlds would be You’d ask me why men act the way they do And I’d say they’re just intimidated by you
Oh how different our worlds would be If you’d for once feel the weight of constant judgement If you’d for once feel the pressure of perfecting perfection If you’d for once have to prove your position as a Person in a place where you’re viewed as an object rather than a human being with a soul
I am not a piece of land, you cannot claim my body or what I do with it You cannot restrict me from my Fundamental rights You, a man, cannot strip me of my choices in birthing a child or not if you, a man, have never dealt with a period or a cramp
How can you trust me with a child but not my choice How can you be pro life if you stop caring about these kids once you find out they’re a person of color, a member of lgbt, or anything other than white and rich
As I walked beside you I realized Oh how different our worlds would be if I were you and you were me
Yet although I am woman that does not make me any less than a man because Under law we are equals
