Women to women

You question me daily
I don't have creative replies 
Perfectly fine will do
Easy to roll off the tongue
You, me and we try so hard 
To put the past to rest 

Always having a way
To sneak up on us
I'm spending my time 
Reflecting on actions
Certain rules followed
I don't know how to react 

I'm asking you to rise up
I'm asking us to voice up
I'm asking you to opinion up 
I'm asking us to speak up
I'm asking you to stand up
Women to women

We should not let fear
Cripple our strength
You and me as partners
We got each other's back
There is no greater power 
Than the allies we share 

For every tear drop lost
Our own story to be told
Be brave and bold 
Write all the truths
We hold close to our hearts
Deserving to be heard

I'm asking you to jump up 
I'm asking us to vote up 
I'm asking you to theory up  
I'm asking us to shout up
Im asking you to open up 
Women to women

From the heart 
Char
