Femenism

I would rather be Independent 
Than be a picture in his frame
The rules have changed but this is not a game
Would rather stand on my own two feet than be dependent
Its time we take femenism to that next level call me an extremist
Why should  I get payed less for the same job a man does ,lets bring in realism
If women stopped working the world would come to a screeching halt
Business itself would come to a pause and the impact would be felt
Why are we treated unfairly by the male counterpart
Coming to job interviews does not mean they should promote sexual terrorism
Why are we forced to think inside the box, are we rectangular prisms
I wanna break free from the patriachal stigmatism 
This fight for equal rights is much deeper than that of materialism
It seems a daughter can live up to all  the expectations ,but will never receive the same love and recognition from a father,a love that  has no EQUILIBRIUM
People are taking the F out of femenism and calling it EMENISM/ENEMISM
Fighting for my rights as a woman and they calling it Nazism
I will keep fighting until every woman in the world OWNS her own network like Oprah  the criticism
I'd rather be the voice of change than let my ambitions lie dormant,Im the voice of activism
Its like the French revolution and this has turned into fascism
Turning a blind eye to injustice at any level towards us is not heroism
