GIRLS

We have been belittled and burned,
Chained down by society.
But by now you might have learned,
Nothing keeps us from rising.

We fight for our right,
Breaking through our shackles,
From morning to night,
Our will never wavers

You can try to hold us down
Anchor us to stereotypes and
Force unrealistic ideals,
But this won't go on forever.

Our yearn for freedom,
From the hurricane of inferiority
Shall always transcend high,
Your mind shall never break us.

We are the girls of this world,
We are the fighters and the preachers.
We are the ones who will unfurl,
The high held flag of equality.
