SILENCE IS UNACCEPTABLE
Redefining Feminine Power in 'Silence is Unacceptable'
Lyrics
I hate the word bitch - That's the tweet
I strongly dislike the derogatory term "bitch" - expressing discontent
Sick of women being typecast, and defined as weak
Frustrated with women being stereotyped and perceived as weak
Sick of women being catcalled, walking down the street
Displeasure with women being subjected to catcalling while walking on the street
Sick of women being blamed as the reason men cheat
Upset about women being unfairly blamed for men's infidelity
Got me some questions but they are rhetorical
Pose rhetorical questions, expressing a desire for reflection
Why does the bible paint women as horrible
Questioning the negative portrayal of women in religious texts like the Bible
Why do the legends make women the oracles
Questioning the tendency to depict women as mystical figures in legends
Let's take it back, I'm going historical
Proposing a return to historical perspectives
Women's suffrage caused a lot of tension
Referencing the tension caused by women's suffrage movement
Fragile-ass men had a brand new obsession
Criticizing men who became obsessed with the idea of fragile masculinity
Screaming and shouting about it - the women should stay some
Describing societal pressure for women to conform to traditional roles
Said they're the strength of communities we'll let them lay low
Highlighting the historical suppression of women's strength and potential
Avoided the blame, smeared them with shame, made them the scapegoats
Pointing out the unjust scapegoating of women and avoidance of responsibility
Exploited the labor, collected the checks fucked over Jane Doe
Criticizing the exploitation of women's labor and mistreatment of individuals like "Jane Doe"
Women don't win by emulating men
Asserting that women should not aim to imitate men to succeed
We all win when we start emulating them
Advocating for collective success by embracing women's unique qualities
Women don't win by emulating men
Reiterating the idea that women don't win by copying men
We all win when we start emulating them
Emphasizing the importance of everyone benefiting from embracing women's qualities
I hate the word bitch - I repeat
Repetition of disliking the term "bitch" and addressing toxic behaviors
I'm calling out the toxic shit hiding down underneath
Calling out toxic behavior hidden beneath the surface
Go for control, grab by the wrists
Criticizing attempts to control women and advocating for respect
Ask for obedience not for the gifts
Rejecting the demand for obedience over genuine connection
Clumsy with words - you go for the fists?
Condemning physical aggression and promoting a change in approach
Fuck all that noise, I'm flipping the script
Rejecting societal norms and changing the narrative
Paint all these women as if they're the villains
Addressing the unfair portrayal of women as villains
You act like their demons or witches or Wiccans
Rejecting demonization and fictionalization of women
You're authoring stories more made up of all fiction
Criticizing the creation of false narratives that harm women
You're killing their dreams and their hopes by the millions
Highlighting the impact of false stories on women's dreams and hopes
Divine is defined by the feminine
Stating that the divine is defined by feminine qualities
Divine is defined by the feminine
Repetition of the idea that the divine is defined by feminine qualities
Divine is defined by the feminine
-Divine is defined by the feminine
-Women don't win by emulating men
Reiteration that women don't succeed by imitating men
We all win when we start emulating them
Emphasizing collective success through embracing women's qualities
Women don't win by emulating men
Reiterating that women don't win by copying men
We all win when we start emulating them
Stressing the importance of everyone benefiting from embracing women's qualities
Buncha boys about to get mad and call me simp
Anticipating criticism for supporting women and rejecting derogatory labels
That's why I'll be loved, you'll be a broke pimp
Asserting that advocating for change and respect is worthwhile
It's time for change, so let the power move
Calling for a shift in power dynamics and embracing positive change
It's time for change, so let the power move
Repetition of the call for change and embracing empowerment
It's time for change, so let the power move
-It's time for change, so let the power move
