To you we are just puppets with no strings,
Caught in the lies that the Bible brings,
Chains of silence, tales untold,
In shadows deep, our stories hold.
But deep inside a fire burns,
A call for change, the world now turns,
No more fear, no more disguise,
It’s time we open blinded eyes.
[Chorus]
So we fight for our freedom,
We fight for our lives,
We fight to survive when we walk at night.
We fight for our future,
We fight for our child,
We fight to be heard by a world deaf and blind.
It’s easier to keep the same,
But that only brings more blame,
To hold the line, to break the mold,
We rise anew, courageous and bold.
No longer puppets on the stage,
We write the lines, we turn the page,
Our voices loud, forever strong,
Together we right what’s been wrong.
*Chorus
So we fight for our freedom,
We fight for our lives,
We fight to survive when we walk at night.
We fight for our future,
We fight for our child,
We fight to be heard by a world deaf and blind.
We are women, not your possession,
Not your toy, but our own expression.
Our lives belong to us alone,
Built from strength and flesh and bone.
*Chorus
So we fight for our freedom,
We fight for our lives,
We fight to survive when we walk at night.
We fight for our future,
We fight for our child,
We fight to be heard by a world deaf and blind.
We are women, hear our song,
In unity we stand strong.
No more puppets without strings.
