Ameliah Jayne - Mother Earth Lyrics

Afraid of our power,
So they squash us down,
Try to tame us, try to name us
Keep us pretty in a gown
Over centuries,
How different would it be,
If we were empowered,
And not overpowered?
The fight to be heard across the land
Born into a war that we didn't plan
Remember where you came from
History has it all wrong
Women are beautifully strong
But you kick us in the dirt,
Never forget our worth
It may be a mans world
But we're all living on mother earth
Our abilities underestimated
Can't you see why, we're so jaded?
Under appreciated,
While we also work all day,
Husbands treating their wives like maids,
Sons then treating their mums like slaves
The apple never falls far from the tree
Freshly made by the patriarchy
Remember where you came from
History has it all wrong
Women are beautifully strong
But you kick us in the dirt,
Never forget our worth
It may be a mans world
But we're all living...
We cradled you from the womb
And brought you life,
But we're afraid to walk alone at night
Bite the hand that feeds you
Take away our rights
But we are not beneath you
F*ck misogyny
We want equality
Repressed, wear less,
Get objectified
Wear more to make sure
You have a pure mind
But she was only 9...
Remember where you came from
History has it all wrong
Women are beautifully strong
But you kick in the dirt,
Never forget our worth
It may be a mans world
But we're all living on Mother Earth
(But you kick us in the dirt)
On Mother Earth
(But you kick us in the dirt)
Never forget our worth
It may be a mans world,
But we're all living on Mother Earth...
