This is dedicated to all the women who walk any street in our country. It's called Keep Your Mouth off my Sisters.

Sometimes you begin to wonder if it's a conspiracy of men asleep at the wheel the way they spit out words at women they don't even know - that they will never know. And it scares me to think that compared to the things they say, what must be going on inside their brains? And I wanna scream at them: "Hey keep your mouth off my sisters, your words cause emotional blisters!"

Did something happen at birth to cause this malfunction or did they learn it, or earn it in some archaic male ritual like; the medals of war, a gold ribbon for the best line; Are you daddy's little girl? Let me tear that pussy up! Ever had a tongue bath baby!? What's the matter bitch, you a dyke?

Years spent vomiting out abusive women and men still don't get it? I wanna bend each one of them and fuck the misogyny out of them. To wash their mouths out with my dick and let them feel the collective humiliation of women everywhere.

To be unable to walk the streets safely without feeling like; "This weeks special: Pussy on a plate served up fresh and piping hot! - oh yum and give me a six pack to wash it out." Oh you're the man Man, you're the big Man, man, men.

Ever notice there is always two of them? They are never alone; like a cowards tag team match of sexual harassment.

We’ve gotten too far away
From where we once were
No one is an island
Not in this world
How much freedom can one have
Before freedom is lost
I want to soar like a bird
But not with a cost
We can talk it out
But that’s not part of the plan
For we can only get by
By being like a man
One thing you must comprehend
A woman is a woman
A power we need
To understand
Please, make sure you lift her up
And never bring her down
Tell her she can do anything
Let her shine in the sun
Please remember
In these crazy times
To keep her close
To your heart

Though we’re different
In many ways we’re the same
For we can accomplish
The same things
Expect the best from a girl
That’s what you’ll get
A hard-working beauty
Giving it a ton of sweat
Please, make sure you lift her up
And never bring her down
Tell her she can do anything
Let her shine in the sun
Please remember
In these crazy times
To keep her close
To your heart
