And If My Body

and if my body’s not enough

I shouldn’t qualify

and if my body’s not enough

I shouldn’t have to try

if my body isn’t mine

I shouldn’t pay a tax

if my body isn’t mine

then I’m not giving back

they all love you when you’re speaking up for everyone else

they all love you when you’re serving, they say things like “god bless”

they all love you ‘til you’re fighting for your own asses

fuck them all, then

they can make new people to serve the masses

and if my body’s not enough

I’m gonna speak my piece

and if my body’s not enough

I’m gonna keep it brief

and if my body isn’t mine

this isn’t gonna work

and if my body isn’t mine

I’m gonna raise the dirt

they all love you when you’re speaking up for everyone else

they all love you when you’re serving, they say things like “god bless”

they all love you ‘til you’re fighting for your own asses

fuck them all, then

they can make new people to serve

like we all said, this would come

like we all said, this was real

like we all said, this is the big one

they said “calm down,” so now we’re all down here

I don’t owe you my strength

I don’t owe you my spine

I don’t owe you my words

I don’t own you my time

I don’t owe you my strength

I don’t owe you my spine

I don’t owe you my work

I don’t own you what’s mine

they all love you when you’re speaking up for everyone else

they all love you when you’re serving, they say things like “god bless”

they all love you ‘til you’re showing off your own asses

fuck them all, then

they can make new people to serve the masses

I don’t owe you my strength

I don’t owe you my spine

I don’t owe you my work

I don’t own you what’s mine
