Poem Written for the August 9 Break ALL the Chains! Celebration by a Young Woman Poet

CONTROL

August 14, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us

 

Never thought we would change a man's life or have him think twice
They said we would never be anything, but some good house wifes, with no life
Never to vote or to even see the light
Only good enough to carry the next generation and treating them right

Now we showing the world as women that we can get things right
Strong like a man we just need to get our chips right
Playing this game of call your own price

It's over

I got me and now that's life

A strong woman, breaking down records, so they can write down in history right
But represent us all as strong women as we fight

Never give up and never look down
A strong woman, I'm proud to represent now
