I stood there with every ounce
Of humanity left in me
This new me, scared me
But I wasn’t afraid anymore,
Afraid of this cruel world
I had faced the tragedy
Discrimination, inequality
I’ve been called weak
But here I stood now
Fearless, powerful
Intimidating males
People now fear me
However, they don’t know
They turned me into this person
Whom everyone fears now
I can see terror in their eyes
As I walk pass by
A little wrong move
And they’ll be gone
Empowered here I stand
Support my fellow sisters
Slice the necks of fuckers
Who harm my people
Drive a sword through the hearts
Of the ones who try to take me down
I won’t let them silence me anymore
My power, my soul
Behind every exquisite thing that existed
There was something tragic
