about

This track is my response o gender inequality. It has not been easy to navigate though this industry as a female so i decided to write about it. It empowers everybody to accept themselves for who they are regardless of what others have to say about it.

lyrics

Just be..

Say what I wana say
Do what I wana do
Go where I wana go
See who I wana see
Play when I wana play
Prove what I wana prove
Show what I wana show
Be who I wanna be

Wana keep control better scratch that
Coz that life you stole i'ma take back
Might look like a pole but I live fat
Now i'm on patrol, bankroll is the format
No more putting me aside to show your face
Since we coincide in the same space
See im bonafide I earned my place
Lyrically justified all in uppercase
I'm a female living in a man’s world
This is my jail feeling like i wana hurl
No I wont fail, coz it makes my toes curl
Telling my tale since I was a little girl
I suggest you go and find yourself a seat
I wont be oppressed, I’ll never retreat
Say it with my chest, i'm blessed, you can feel the heat
Fire is possessed, so you’re in for a treat

Think you’re better than me you have no clue
I prove I do anything that you do
I demand an equaliser debut
Time to recognise I am not a taboo
If you don’t follow, then I bid you adieu
Promises are hollow I know more than a few
Dead beat dad’s with a case of the man flu
Driving me mad like the M62
Now, Its time to bun the gender gap
Align our pay stop the attack
Vaginas not a handicap
Giving birth to the world on our back so
Admit its he piss that you take and
Its turning out to be a ball ache start
Showing me some love like I’m Drake
Stop throwing out excuses while I wait.

Why’d you hold me down Don’t want me around
Just give me my crown coz I wont die
Are you scared of me? Wont let be free
But I must be seen, me I’m so fly
So believe the hype
Come with me tonight
Il show you a little snippet come the sights
I’ll keep up the fight
Know the futures bright
Manifesto set it all alight
I just need to blow this dynamite
My shadow will come into the light
Gotta make dough that can set me up for life
Dog with a bone and I’m known to bite
Watch me grow if you feed my appetite
I aint going home till you give me equal rights
Status quo overdue an overwrite
Won’t let go 'til you grieve at my demise
