Lyrics

Fight for Our Lives

[Intro]

We're on the streets again

Another bed sheet painted with the blood of a sister

The hands of violent men

The hands of a society that doesn't believe us

[Refrain]

Power and control

Power and control

[Verse 1]

We will reclaim the night and our minds

And our bodies and our homes

Our bodies and our homes

We will fight for all of us

To have the means to be free

The means to be free

[Pre-Chorus]

You don't own us

You don't own us

You don't own us

You don't own us

[Chorus]

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

[Refrain]

Power and control

Power and control

[Verse 2]

We demand that the media stops perpetuating the narratives that kill us

And robbing dead women of dignity

Robbing dead women of dignity

We mourn every sibling stolen by male violence

Trans, sex workers, undocumented

Our murders are systemic

[Pre-Chorus]

You don't own us

You don't own us

You don't own us

You don't own us

[Chorus]

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives

We fight for our lives
