Everyone says I can't.
Everyone tells me to sit still.
Everyone tells me to behave like a "lady".

Society wants me skinny.
Society wants me quiet and unquestioning.
Society wants me stupid and idiotic.
Society wants me weak.

Everyone wants me to be some damn damsel in distress.
Everyone wants to save me and then they get the glory.

I do what I want.
I will NOT be molded into a Barbie doll.
I Am My Own Person!
I won't be pushed around.

I AM A WOMAN.
I WILL NOT BE SILENCED.
