Sisters

Mala, are they ready? Open the door slip the weight off my shoulder Yeah, we're fighting for change and we're a little closer And you tell me my decision making is too emotional I'm sorry that you find me unapproachable You try to tell me how a proper lady acts Express myself and then call me a maniac To the ones who stand tall and you were told you better tone it down (My sisters keep on fightin', yeah my sisters keep on fightin') I'm tired of arguing let me fix your crown (My sisters keep fightin', yeah my sisters keep fightin') You're capable and strong but they said you need a man around (My sisters keep fightin', yeah my sisters keep fightin') Hold your head high I wanna hear you sing it loud (My sisters keep on fighting, yeah my sisters keep on fighting) We've been here before I hope we're not here again Just because we want rights Doesn't mean we hate men It's simple, we're trying to take our power back I feel stubborn, check my zodiac I'm just a little tired of protecting your ego Ooo, bulls eye Did you feel my arrow? You try to tell me how a proper lady acts Express myself and then call me a maniac To the ones who stand tall and you were told you better tone it down (My sisters keep on fightin', yeah my sisters keep on fightin') I'm tired of arguing let me fix your crown (My sisters keep fightin', yeah my sisters keep fightin') You're capable and strong but they said you need a man around (My sisters keep on fightin', yeah my sisters keep on fightin') Hold your head high I wanna hear you sing it loud (My sisters keep fightin', yeah my sisters keep fightin') So you be you and I'll be me We're not defined by our femininity Be butch, be smart, be free to be Be frank, be creative independently And who cares if they don't understand your lifestyle You're walking down the street being told to smile But rest your face and rest your mind Set your pace and take your time To the ones who stand tall and you were told you better tone it down (My sisters keep on fightin', yeah my sisters keep on fightin') I'm tired of arguing let me fix your crown (My sisters keep fightin', yeah my sisters keep fightin') You're capable and strong but they said you need a man around (My sisters keep on fightin', yeah my sisters keep on fightin') Hold your head high I wanna hear you sing it loud (My sisters keep on fightin', yeah my sisters keep on fightin') My sisters keep on fighting Stay strong!
