To the Women
Of my Motherland
Creators of Men
True Keepers of the land
Do not despair!
The system is designed
To keep us all down
But time after time
We come through and shine
The enemy was created
Carefully picked among us
Molded and shaped
Imposed upon us
Seeking to divide
So we hate each other
While the system strives
To be stronger than ever
Discrediting all of us
For actions of one of us
Should awaken the rest of us
To seek justice for all of us
Despite our conundrum
Herstory will survive
With sheer determination
Our creation will thrive
Across each continent
Around the universe
Too many have sacrificed
For us to be hopeless
I call upon your wisdom
Creators of my Motherland
My mothers, my sisters
My daughters and good friends
If you need inspiration
Simply look around
Our collective imagination
Can break the system down
Our freedom is priceless
We will not be silenced
If they want true peace
We demand real justice
To the Creators
Of my Motherland
The True Keepers
Of our beautiful land
I implore you today!
Do not lose sight
Keep up the fight!
For this land, is Our Land.
Dedicated to my granddaughter.
Her future is female.
