I am a woman

I see your face in all my dreams
I see you walk up and grab me from behind; I have no time to scream
I kick and shove, claw and bite
I will not die, not now, not tonight
I throw you off me, and sprint hard and fast
I run hard and run far, but my dream changes, the dreams pass

I am now in a bedroom, you try to persuade me with your charm
I scream and I kick at my captive, a sickly sweet liquid drips from my arm
I will not go, I will not say goodbye; this is not my last breath
Today won't be the day I come so close to death

I will fight for my survival,
Even if that means to kill my rival

I cannot lose all hope
Then how will others bare and cope?
I am a woman and I will not be take advantage of
I need an angel sent from above
One to hold and protect me from all harm
To hold me safe in their arms

I do not want to die, I do not want to go; I want to live
But there is nothing I can do, nothing I can give
There is something creeping up on me from behind
I can't see them, I am blind
I am a woman and I will fight with everything I am worth
I have done so; even since birth

I am awake now, and there you are with a smile
It makes you look senile
Here I am with a scream stuck in my throat
Sadly, this all play, this is something I wrote
But as I look in your eyes, I can see this isn't the same for you
I have a feeling this is real, but I won't give up, I am not through

I am a woman who is as equal to you as any other man you know
I am not lying, I am not kidding; this isn't just some sort of show
You try to rape me, you try to murder me, but I am stronger
I don't think you understand, I don't think you ever will; but it won't take much longer

Tonight I made history, tonight I proved my point
I'm sorry but this wasn't what you were looking for, I'm sorry to disappoint
So go on with your day, and don't bother to understand
People ignore us, they just misunderstand
Everyone is equal, everyone is the same
But people don't get it; they hang their head in shame

I don't care if you hate me for I am
I don't hate you, but I still take your remark like a slam
Hate me, love me, do whatever you want to do
But just remember, I am glad I don't know you
