Either you like it or not
I am a warrior
I will fight for my freedom
I will not bow or conform
Because I exist for my own sake
To please myself and myself only

Either you like it or not,
My voice will be heard
Because I am a person
Before I am a sister,
a daughter,a friend
I am a person
And I will fight for my existence.
