Grow a pair, he said
In this world, you need to grow a pair
It doesn't matter that you are a woman
In this world, it doesn't matter
She looked at him and smiled
Half devilish, half divine
In a man's world
He can only see through a man's eyes
But she already grew two pairs
On her chest and at her back
For a man, it's courage
For a woman, it's love, it's lust
Security, sensuality
Motherhood, livelihood
It's a list no man would ever understand
