Grateful and Polite

I was led to believe we could have it all

I was convinced we were trying to tear down the same wall

Freedom's an option I can't seem to afford

Yes we won some battles

But we're losing the war

And until it gets righteous

It might get much worse

It's always darkest before the dawn

I was raised to be grateful and polite

Remember to be humble, turn the other cheek and smile

To show them willingness, girl, be one of the boys

Go put on a nice dress, but careful, not too short!

Or you'll get what you deserve

Just what you deserve

And don't come back crying if something happens after dark

They made me believe I was a strong independent woman

So I would sit back, relax and keep an eye on the kids

I was told I should stand up for my rights

So I did, but every time I tried

Remember what you called me

Did you hear what you called me?

And you kiss your mother with those lips?

We were told we were equals

To just go and get what we want

But when we cheated or lied, we became sinners, forbidden

Witches, bitches, brainwashed by feminism

The names changed, same difference

You burned me to the ground

Called me a whore

Fucked me to my core

And now you're about to steal my right to abort
