I Speak For Me

I Speak For Me A girl is a girl A boy is a boy Babes a blessing Not a propaganda ploy I am a woman A woman I honor to be This so called equality Does not speak for me Mankind is mankind No beast evolved My faith in our creator Will not be dissolved I speak as a woman A woman freely to be This called equality Does not speak for me You speak not from my mouth As you promote human slaughter You speak no truth in rights For killing a son or daughter You may deny for yourself Your own blessed creation Exploit your nakedness Flaunt 'for the nations While you shout and sing Trade your beatuty for fight Throw out your virtue To wretchedness of night I say I am a woman, A woman God formed me Your feministic slander Does not speak for me I am a woman A woman honored to be With virtue, truth, love Speaking my equality
