Her hands are strong enough To lift up even the mightiest man’s spirits Callused from her endless work But still always outstretched To embrace those nearest to her Her fingertips delicate enough To make the same man Believe that liquid fire exists As they dance their way across his skin After he’s made his way into her heart Her legs steady enough To carry society’s standards like air It’s no wonder these legs Will one day be the gateway to life For future warriors and peacemakers alike Never be ashamed to be a woman Because every man came from our womb We are just like men but with the fire of life Raging so strong inside of us That we cannot keep it contained inside

Woman
Her hands are strong enough To lift up even the mightiest man’s spirits Callused from her endless work But still always outstretched To embrace those nearest to her Her fingertips delicate enough To make the same man Believe that liquid fire exists As they dance their way across his skin After he’s made his way into her heart Her legs steady enough To carry society’s standards like air It’s no wonder these legs Will one day be the gateway to life For future warriors and peacemakers alike Never be ashamed to be a woman Because every man came from our womb We are just like men but with the fire of life Raging so strong inside of us That we cannot keep it contained inside
