The Fight For Equality

We can be equal without being the same.
Let's say it out loud, we shall be heard:
Look past my gender, and know my name.
This is not about gaining wealth or fame
Together let's stand, let's spread the word:
We can be equal without being the same.
No more fighting about who is to blame
What matters most, is the pain inferred
Look past my gender, and know my name.
Do not forget how far we came
Forward we march, for the pot has been stirred
We can be equal without being the same.
Who we are is no reason for shame
The lines between male and female are blurred
Look past my gender, and know my name.
We don't need a label, this isn't a game
Inequality still existing is completely absurd
We can be equal without being the same.
Look past my gender, and know my name.
