A Woman's Cry

By Parizo & CHANTEL 

A woman's cry is deeper than the ocean's eye
A woman's heart is tougher than  man's fist

A woman's cry is harder than a man's thigh 
And a woman's heartbeat is much bigger than a man in bare feet 

A woman's cry tells the untold 
A woman cry writes the unwritten 
A woman's cry sings the unsang 
It's you and me who have to listen 

When her tears drives to the collar 
Heavens kneel down to polar 
She doesn't weep if its not pain 
She cries only when in vain 

A woman's heart is not a playground 
stop playing with it 
A woman's head is not a race 
Stop running in it 
A woman's body is not a punching bag 
Respect it 

A No it's No 
If she is not willing 
Then stop forcing 

Be a man enough and do the right thing 
Stop ubusing abantu be sfazana 
They owe you nothing 

They too have a word 
They too have a stand 
This is their world
