It’s a man’s world
It’s indeed a man’s world
Although we give them life
But let’s face it,
We give them the maximum offerings
There are those of us who sell for pleasure
Without measure
Their treasures
There are those of us who covet
Without regret
What our peers have, an open secret
There are those of us
Who act helpless, yes, as weak as
New borns who wish to be treated thus
There are those of us who speak
For men and help them reach their peak
Helping them get the chances to peek
On others to gain favour
There are those of us who cheat
Branding it our greatest feat
Loving it and taking seats
In the land of the cheats
There are those of us who hate respect
Curling wings in all aspects
Killing views which might help
Shall we take our cups of thoughts and stand
To all these disband
To pave way for our rights?
Shall we clean our home
And make it shine bright
In order to let visitors step in without their dirty leg wears?
We are women
We are the world
We are the very essence of life
Without us there is no world
Shall we then stand to clean and fight for our right?
