for one reason, to hatch an egg
to make of someone a human
you are not born a woman for a sole reason
you are not born a woman
to make meets end or to make ends meet
your body is not a bridge
to be trampled upon where they cross but you stay
so you are not born a woman of service
saying yes and no like you would exchange old cans
your words are precious
made from rare gems
you are not born woman to reap
what others have planted in your absence
to make you claim bad crop
worse confusion by the tongue
you were not born woman to be someone's hero
only mother, wife, handing over dreams for your life
you were not born to save someone
don't let him tell you are a savior
