Mahsa Amini
Mahsa Amini
Say her name
What kind of world do we live in that kills to shame?
I stand with my sisters, cry and feel your pain
Back off
We're all living so respect our space
Mahsa Amini
Say her name
Killed for the right to express her way
What kind of world do we live in that kills to tame?
Who are you sworn to protect?
No lives for hate.
We are the backbone of love in the world
The givers of life, stolen from the countries they dwell
Grieving our sisters. Given no system to tell
Plucked from our homeland and shipped off to sell
We are the dreamers throwing wishes in wells
Dreaming of a place safe when we're roaming at 12
Where our babies can play, never preyed on or dealt
These cards they gave, rigged game. No bell
And through our wisdom we could flourish and thrive
But your demons live big and never swallow their pride
I feel helpless when I hear my sister's war cries
So I shout for them, never leave a sister behind
Mahsa Amini
Say her name
What kind of world do we live in that kills to shame?
I stand with my sisters, cry and feel your pain
Back off
We're all living so respect our space
Mahsa Amini
Say her name
Killed for the right to express her way
What kind of world do we live in that kills to tame?
Who are you sworn to protect?
No lives for hate.
Why are we still fighting just to cut our hair?
Express proudly our religion in the clothes we wear
Be loud in the system, when the system don't care
Bring change without the fear of being beaten or bled
Even brother allies have been shot and reduced
Sentenced to death for belief of uncovering truth
Whilst the world still spins. Don't see them on the news
No media blitz covers the bloody thousands in tombs
They want to assault women so they'll go to hell
But my sisters will fly. You can face the karma your dealt
You can never touch our spirit, our spirit never dies
Mahsa Amini, feel her spirit strong and alive
You can never touch our spirit, our spirit never dies
Mahsa Amini, feel her spirit strong and alive
Yeah you can never touch our spirit, our spirit never dies
Mahsa Amini, feel her spirit strong and alive
Mahsa Amini
Say her name
What kind of world do we live in that kills to shame?
I stand with my sisters, cry and feel your pain
Back off
We're all living so respect our space
Mahsa Amini
Say her name
Killed for the right to express her way
What kind of world do we live in that kills to tame?
Who are you sworn to protect?
No lives for hate.
