Rise Up Girl!
Rise up girl; stop dimming your light!
Don’t make yourself small
‘cause you think it’s more polite!
Rise up and be heard.
Make it known where you stand
with all of your might!

On your knees boy, and pray.
Pray that there will never come a day
when you’re made to hear
all that your girl had to say,
over all of your excuses.
On your knees boy, obey!

The roles they are a-changing,
can you feel it?
So many people taking a stand,
demanding equality and balance in this
new uncertain land.

Gender and power struggles,
now a way of the past.
By practicing proper power exchange
we harness those energies,
building a connection meant to last.
