So what am I not supposed to have an opinion Should I be quiet just because I'm a woman Call me a bitch cos I speak what's on my mind Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled
When a female fires back Suddenly the target don't know how to act So he does what any little boy will do Making up a few false rumors or two
That for sure is not a man to me Slanderin' names for popularity It's sad you only get your fame through controversy But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say
This is for my girls all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth Thinking all women should be seen, not heard So what do we do girls? Shout louder! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground Lift your hands high and wave them proud Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down
Nobody can hold us down Nobody can hold us down Nobody can hold us down Never can, never will
So what am I not supposed to say what I'm saying Are you offended by the message I'm bringing Call me whatever cos your words don't mean a thing Guess you ain't even a man enough to handle what I sing
If you look back in history It's a common double standard of society The guy gets all the glory the more he can score While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore
I don't understand why it's okay The guy can get away with it & the girl gets named All my ladies come together and make a change Start a new beginning for us everybody sing
This is for my girls all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth Thinking all women should be seen, not heard What do we do girls? Shout louder! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down
Lil' Kim: Check it - Here's something I just can't understand If the guy have three girls then he's the man He can either give us some head, sex her off If the girl do the same, then she's a whore But the table's about to turn I'll bet my fame on it Cats take my ideas and put their name on it It's aiight though, you can't hold me down I got to keep on movin' To all my girls with a man who be tryin to mack Do it right back to him and let that be that You need to let him know that his game is whack And Lil' Kim and Aguilera Christina got your back
But you're just a little boy Think you're so cute, so coy You must talk so big To make up for small lil' things So you're just a little boy All you'll do is annoy You must talk so big To make up for small lil' things
This is for my girls... This is for my girls all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth Thinking all women should be seen, not heard So what do we do girls? Shout louder! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down
This is for my girls all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth Thinking all women should be seen, not heard So what do we do girls? Shout louder! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down Spread the word, can't hold us down
Love that song - Perfect anthem for Women. Rock on! ;)
Hey dad look at me Think back and talk to me Did I grow up according to plan? And do you think I'm wasting my time doing things I wanna do? But it hurts when you disapprove all along
And now I try hard to make it I just want to make you proud I'm never gonna be good enough for you I can't pretend that I'm alright And you can't change me
'Cuz we lost it all Nothing lasts forever I'm sorry I can't be perfect Now it's just too late and We can't go back I'm sorry I can't be perfect
I try not to think About the pain I feel inside Did you know you used to be my hero? All the days you spent with me Now seem so far away And it feels like you don't care anymore
And now I try hard to make it I just want to make you proud I'm never gonna be good enough for you I can't stand another fight And nothing's alright
'Cuz we lost it all Nothing lasts forever I'm sorry I can't be perfect Now it's just too late and We can't go back I'm sorry I can't be perfect
Nothing's gonna change the things that you said Nothing's gonna make this right again Please don't turn your back I can't believe it's hard Just to talk to you But you don't understand
'Cuz we lost it all Nothing lasts forever I'm sorry I can't be perfect Now it's just too late and We can't go back I'm sorry I can't be perfect
'Cuz we lost it all Nothing lasts forever I'm sorry I can't be perfect Now it's just too late and We can't go back I'm sorry I can't be perfect
This song perfectly (heh) describes the way I'm feeling at the moment. Though it has nothing to do with my dad or anything like that... Just a general feeling. Okie, I need to go pass out. Had to have a cigarette. I would be asleep still but dad came in galloping like a damn horse and banging doors around. I need to beat his head against a door later. Ok.. tooooooodles.
Just a minute ago an old Folgers commerical from the 80's came on tv. It was so weird. For a minute I thought I had time warped back to the 80's for real! lol And then out of nowhere my stupid Sims 2 game just starts playing by it's self.. like ok! Gonna listen to a few more songs then snoozeville.
Latest icon.. it needs something but I don't know what. Anyway I was listening to the Mandy Moore song and I think this icon turned out cute.
So.. now I gotta either stay up or go to bed. Hmm.. I'm sort of tired but I feel all nasty cause I didn't get a shower yesterday cause of my mother. Gah. Hogging the shower.
So I might take a shower and stay up and then crash later.. cat nap. I wish my dang bro wasn't here then I could watch movies at a normal volume before 12pm!
Daily extended (by Astrology.com) You have a knack for knowing what other people want (maybe before they even know themselves), and you love the advantage that gives you. You are truly a master of intuition at the moment, and you use it wisely in every situation. Right now, you have the ability to know what someone else is thinking just by staring them straight in the eye, an act that will most likely leave them powerless to move under your gaze. You're magnetic and powerful -- just make sure you use your skills for good.
My horoscope for today.. though I have yet to go to bed. Heh. I know it sounds like so full of myself to say, but that above is so true. I've always been very intuitive.
For some reason the Lila McCann song "I Wanna Fall in Love" just freaking entered my head. Weird. I used to LOVE that song. I wonder why that came to mind? lol
Ok, I have no idea where that cd is so off to get the mp3! ;)

Quotes
[I believe humans need human contact even while asleep and unconscious. - Marilyn Monroe
Your company. The pleasure of your company. I want your input on video rentals. I stand there for hours, I can't pick anything out.
I want someone to say goodnight to, a last call of the day. I don't have a last call of the day. Do you? - Bounce
Life and death, energy and peace. If I stop today it was still worth it. Even the terrible mistakes that I made and would have unmade if I could.
The pains that have burned me and scarred my soul, it was worth it, for having been allowed to walk where I've walked, which was to hell on earth,
heaven on earth, back again, into, under, far in between, through it, and above. - Gia
Love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. If you don't start with that, what are you going to end up with? Fall head over heels.
I say find someone you can love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen to your heart.
I'm not hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this.
To make the journey and not fall deeply in love - well, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived. - Meet Joe Black
People once believed that when someone dies, a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead. But sometimes, something so bad happens that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the soul can't rest.
Then sometimes, just sometimes, the crow can bring that soul back to put the wrong things right.
Little things use to mean so much to Shelley - I thought they were kind of trivial. Believe me, nothing is trivial.
If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them. Buildings burn. People die. But real love lives forever. -The Crow
You said you couldn't be with someone who didn't believe in you. Well I believed in you. I just didn't believe in me. I love you. always. - Pretty in Pink
