The Future Is Female

The future is female and it's time to face it, time to be open and time to embrace it
I beg men to believe that we won't erase ya, but it is high time that we start a new phase yah
They tell me when they're nasty boys they will be boys, but I don't like it, no, it brings me zero joys
They say they're trying somehow to get close to me, but all it does is make me wanna flee the scene

I do not aspire to be a handmaiden's tale, and please do not trap me like I am in a jail
No, you know I'd hold a space for you, be there to let you speak your truth
But if your sexism protrudes, I'm like, look what you made me do
I am the type to be loyal to a fault, I am open for you to be the royal of my heart

And you're sitting here trying to call me names, little boy go back to your video games
The future is female and it's time to face it, time to be open and time to embrace it
I beg men to believe that we won't erase ya, but it is high time that we start a new phase yah
They tell me when they're nasty boys they will be boys, but I don't like it, no, it brings me zero joys

They say they're trying somehow to get close to me, but all it does is make me wanna flee the scene
I'm not gonna even go and drop the F bomb, gotta do a little more if you're gonna get some
I know for many years you've been told not to feel, but that's bullshit, trust me I'm ready for your fears
I want a man who can face his own feelings, who can walk in my shoes, who can spread a little healing

Where is this king? Where is this prophet? Where are the men who are grounded and got this?
The future's female and it's time to face it, time to be open and time to embrace it
I beg men to believe that we won't erase you, but it is high time that we start a new phase
Yah
