COMPOSURE
It’s a thing like “Tailhook”
It’s a thing called rape
It’s a thing called abuse
It’s a thing called hate
But, it’s the strength of a woman
That keeps her holding on
It’s a thing like power
That a woman must yield
Like a thing called unjust
That put slaves in a field
But, it’s the strength of a woman
That keeps her head high
It’s been said it’s unfair
That a woman must fight
Still equalities aren’t found
In their house tonight
And, it’s the strength of a woman
That keeps her pressing on....
