Women Empowerment
A woman is not to be treated as a mere object
What she needs is true love and respect
But that isn't what we see when we look around
Most of them are tagged as skanks and trampled down
When they try to change the so-called stereotypes
They are called mean names and some become beaten wives
That isn't the way that they should be treated
It isn't a competition where one wins and one is defeated
We should treat them all like precious stones
Coz to everyone of us our moms are queens sitting on thrones
It sickens me to my very core
That rape is becoming so common, and there's lots more
Women can't safely walk outside at night
Without fearing for their lives that something just might,
Happen at any time regardless of their age
It's like they are trapped in some sort of cage
Like an animal at the zoo, jeered at and admired
But aren't we supposed to make sure that they are actually inspired
To become better human beings and change our society
And be the best version of themselves that they can be
What we need to understand is that all this starts with you and me
Just like it takes individual drops to make the deep blue sea
