We’re strong. We’re intelligent. We’re powerful. We’re phenomenal. We happen to come in different shapes, sizes and colours No we aren’t diamonds But we’re just as precious. We rise above We define our own definition We break our own records. Yet we find ourselves, Understated Underestimated And segregated. We learn to empower rather than beat down We stand together hand in hand Intelligence and kindness form the bond. Looked down upon. They see us like the petals of the rose When really we’re the thorns. We’re warriors fighting for a spot in the world. Soldiers fighting for the respect we deserve. We’re iconic We’re controversial We’re a movement Yes, we may have 1 different chromosome And a section between the legs that's different But that doesn't make us less of a person than the next guy. We’re phenomenal. We’re powerful. We’re intelligent. We’re strong. We're women.

Women
We’re strong. We’re intelligent. We’re powerful. We’re phenomenal. We happen to come in different shapes, sizes and colours No we aren’t diamonds But we’re just as precious. We rise above We define our own definition We break our own records. Yet we find ourselves, Understated Underestimated And segregated. We learn to empower rather than beat down We stand together hand in hand Intelligence and kindness form the bond. Looked down upon. They see us like the petals of the rose When really we’re the thorns. We’re warriors fighting for a spot in the world. Soldiers fighting for the respect we deserve. We’re iconic We’re controversial We’re a movement Yes, we may have 1 different chromosome And a section between the legs that's different But that doesn't make us less of a person than the next guy. We’re phenomenal. We’re powerful. We’re intelligent. We’re strong. We're women.
