Winnie

The voice of Winnie
She vibe too strong, hurt too much she gon' cry this long
The voice of Winnie
She wouldn't hurt nobody, do it for her children, she don't know body
The voice of Winnie
She vibe too strong, hurt too much, she gon' cry this long
The voice of Winnie
She wouldn't hurt nobody, do it for her children, she don't know body

On your knees like a preacher, you getting ready to jump up
If we keep in calling our past, your moves prior to Genesis
Marching hundreds like centerpiece
GDP like the Lebanese
Winter's coming, their bigotry is spectating like Pharisees

What a time to be patient, and what a time to succumb
Want our freedom our money
We heard the gun so we run
Even deeper unlearned so our history yearns
We teach our children to hate
You lit the fire, so burn

The voice of Winnie
She vibe too strong, hurt too much, she gon' cry this long
The voice of Winnie
She wouldn't hurt nobody, do it for her children, she don't know body
The voice of Winnie
She vibe too strong, hurt too much, she gon' cry this long
The voice of Winnie
She wouldn't hurt nobody, do it for her children, she don't know body

My people, they're screaming you need to free us alive
And, yo, we're hungry for victory, rather fight 'til we die
Lethal Mburu mama, sugar mama, Winnie that's it
So many women inventing, they lit the match to your spliff

They got amnesia and ish, we carry children and ish
They won't admit we should be naming martyr Shiro and ish
Instead they put us to each other Twitter beefing and ish
I'm here for unity sis, Oprah, I'm handing out this

The voice of Winnie
She vibe too strong, hurt too much, she gon' cry this long
The voice of Winnie
She wouldn't hurt nobody, do it for her children, she don't know body
The voice of Winnie
She vibe too strong, hurt too much, she gon' cry this long
The voice of Winnie
She wouldn't hurt nobody, do it for her children, she don't know body

The cut themselves up in the winner, they resembling you
Yet you worshipping the, slaves, the real master is you
Wake your girls up and tell them that they're beautiful too
They don't need to compensate for all their beauty, it's true

You give him too much credit, he gon' want it, then he wrecked it
Screw you over, that's the method
Call him up, but I won't let you
The voice of Winnie, little girl
The voice of Winnie, little girl

Being female is the only thing to do
Carrying a light so strong that it could never be through
When they push me down, I fly, rather struggle than to die
Why is my posture genitalia a reason to hide?

I'm proud of all your strides and cries and your melodies ringing
You're getting girls in the hood from the trenches to singing
Keep on little girl, you hold no sin

She vibe too strong, hurt too much, she gon' cry this long
The voice of Winnie
She wouldn't hurt nobody, do it for her children, she don't know body
The voice of Winnie
She vibe too strong, hurt too much, she gon' cry this long
The voice of Winnie
She wouldn't hurt nobody, do it for her children, she don't know body
