My Body, My Property
Everybody's always telling me
That a woman's any good as a man
Believe in who I know I'm supposed to be
'Cause everybody else is taken
But now all these guys are coming along
Tryna tell me how to live my life
They think they're so much better
When I'm really just as clever
And I'm ready to put up a fight
'Cause I'm tired of hearing
That I don't know what's best
It's someone else's choice
And I'm done with this oppression
I'm making this loud and clear
You don't get to say what I do with my body
'Cause my body's my own
And you don't get to act like you understand me
'Cause I doubt that you do
Got all these people tryna put words in my mouth
But no one even hears my shouts
So I just want you to know my body, my property
And you can't have it
Everybody puts on a pretty face
Like they accept everyone
A flower on the surface hides a snake
And covers all the damage done
But now they have finally gone too far
They've stepped across the line
The fire's been ignited
And we're not gonna be silent
We'll be heard tonight
'Cause I'm tired of guessing
When everyone's pretending
Who's fake and who's a friend yeah
I'm done with keeping quiet
I'm making this loud and clear
You don't get to say what I do with my body
'Cause my body's my own
And you don't get to act like you understand me
'Cause I doubt that you do
Got all these people tryna put words in my mouth
But no one even hears my shouts
So I just want you to know my body, my property
And you can't have it
'Cause I'm tired of letting
Everybody else win
Don't I deserve something
I'm done with sitting back yeah
I'm making this loud and clear
You don't get to say what I do with my body
'Cause my body's my own
And you don't get to act like you understand me
'Cause I doubt that you do
Got all these people tryna put words in my mouth
But no one even hears my shouts
So I just want you to know my body, my property
And you can't have it
My body, my property
And you can't have it no
Yeah my body yeah my body
Yeah my body is my property
That a woman's any good as a man
Believe in who I know I'm supposed to be
'Cause everybody else is taken
But now all these guys are coming along
Tryna tell me how to live my life

When I'm really just as clever
And I'm ready to put up a fight
