Brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, you and me.
Today you get bullied for your weight.
It's not your only trait.
You try to make a change,
But all you get is hate.
You work twice as hard to be great,
But you're paid a smaller rate,
Can't negotiate just because you menstruate.
You believe in a different God than the majority,
So you're treated without equality,
not considered a priority.
You're a girl in love with a girl,
So you're treated like you made the wrong choice,
Stripped of your voice.
You're skin is darker than white,
So instead of human rights you get indicts.
Can't shine bright if they turn off your light.
A girl born inside the body of a boy,
Want to be yourself, live a life full of joy,
But anyone different we try to destroy.
Society: seven billion, four hundred and four million, nine hundred seventy six thousand, seven hundred and eighty three.
We're not living free,
Still not being all we can be.
Too many still cannot see,
That change can start with you and me.
