Who
really matters? Who does not?
Soft
voices shattered ones our forefathers forgot
It’s
a farce this constitution
What
we need is revolution
It’s
not right or fair
How
can we get beyond
Days
and nights asking for the right…
To
vote?
The
politics of inclusion
Don’t
allow female inclusion
I
breathe somehow
I
won’t stop fighting, crying, dying
For
one amendment more!
The
politics of inclusion don’t make room for me
Does
a woman have a soul
I
heard a man say
Can
they ever pray to God?
Would
he hear them anyway
There’s
no attempt at resolution
There’s
no love, there’s no sound conclusion
It’s
not right or fair
Will
they ever hear our song
Give
us our rights?
Just
give us some lights for the road?
The
politics of inclusion
Don’t
allow female inclusion
I
breathe somehow
I
won’t stop fighting, crying, dying
For
one amendment more!
The
politics of inclusion don’t make room for me
I’m
not the type to sit around and watch my life go
by
I
want to soar where those eagles fly
When
and where does justice become the law?
The
politics of inclusion
Don’t
allow female inclusion
I
breathe somehow
I
won’t stop fighting crying dying
For
one amendment more!
That’s
what we’re fighting for!
One
amendment more!
You
can’t deny or ignore!
One
amendment more!
The
politics of inclusion will make room for me!
