Girls Vs the World

As I've got older I've came to see how it's girls vs the world
I wish I knew why we aren't more supportive of girls
I don't understand why we say "Man up" when females are stronger 
It's girls vs the world, but all of these ladies we should honour

Society or men I'm not sure which treats ladies worse
I apologise because in the past I've been a womaniser and used to only care about getting a girl out of her skirt
I was a teenager and a typical boy of age
I thought every girl was supposed to look like the ones on the magazine page 

We all talk about which girl has the nicest body then say they shouldn't dress like that
Society says females should act less like that
Then society says guys can sleep around as much as they want, but girls can't have sex like that
Then it's oh she should have surgery, she shouldn't have breasts like that

Funny thing is, It was a woman who showed me that heaven existed after I was dragged through hell
Guess who picked me up and rebuilt me when I fell? 
I won't mention names, but she carried me until I could walk again
I shut my feelings off, but thanks to her I can talk again 

Once you've wiped a girls tears away you'll understand how much her smile's worth
How can you disrespect someone who goes through childbirth? 
Females are judged every day for things they can't change
Females aren't respected like they should be and we're all to blame

I hope every female realises how special they are
Embrace your flaws, be yourself and don't hide your scars
Keep your head up, don't let society or a man tear you down
Remember you're a queen and Wear your crown

As I've got older I've came to see how it's girls vs the world 
We need to be more supportive of girls
All females are beautiful and should be honoured 
They say "Man up" but I've came to see that females are stronger
