Testosterone Tyrants
Keys between my knuckles
As I hurry to my car
This place still aint safe
At least not after dark
I've been female for thirty one years
My *** is abundantly clear
When I cannot walk outside at night
Without my friend called Fear
Keys between my knuckles
Pepper spray clutched in my hand
What can I say to these Testosterone Tyrants
To make them understand?
This place is still not equal
When half of us are afraid
I want to stay up late
Walk the streets and know I'm safe
Boys will be boys
They will rarely be men
The protectors became predators
It's a hard truth to accept
Keys between my knuckles
As I hurry to my car
This world is still not safe yet
At least not for us
this world is still not safe yet
at least not for us
