Womanhood Lyrics

To be a woman is to be small

Not short or weak, but cramped

To hold the hand of a business man

He dreams "I'll share what's mine someday

You'll be lucky to have me"

It's what I see when I look up

To feel the grant of your command

Blocking out the daylight

I was told I could be anything I wanted to be

Could I really be that free?

I was told I could be anything I wanted to be

Could I really be that free?

To be a woman is to be careful

You never know what kinda situation could unfold

To back away from an angry man

Who's been pushed beyond his limits

He takes his dinner how he likes it!

To run through an empty tunnel

Pitch black in the middle of the night

I had heard but I never felt it

For myself

I had heard but now I feel it

Everywhere i go

I had heard but I never felt it

For myself

I had heard but now I feel it

Everywhere I go

I was told I could be anything I wanted to be

Could I really be that free?

I was told I could be anything I wanted to be

Could I really be that free?

I was told I could be anything I wanted to be

Could I really be that free?

I was told I could be anything I wanted to be

Could I really be that free?

Could I really be that free?

Could I really be that free?
