The feeling of never being top dog 
Having to gain muscle just to feel safer  
Always hearing  
“Because I'm a man” 
 “Because I'm better”   
Imagine the world thinking less of you  
for the gender you were born as  
Your teacher says I need strong people  
and picks all boys 
Reaching for something as a man says  
“You shouldn't be getting that I'll get it” or  
“Careful wouldn’t want you to get hurt” 
Men don’t always have to be the hero's  
Women can take care of themselves 
Let us be independent  
We can handle more than you think 
might not have had “power” back then  
But earned that equality  
Had to work extra just to prove were the same 
May be built differently  
But just as strong  
A woman is like an ocean  
Pretty and peaceful  
But powerful and can take over   
Don’t underestimate her capabilities
