International Women's day

I'm not going to come here and lecture you about how strong a woman is
I know you already know

I'm not going to tell you a woman is worthy of some respect
I know you already know

I'm not going to tell you a girl child needs to be educated
I know you already know

I'm not going to tell you we are not in a 'competition' with men
I know you already know

You can feign ignorance
You can lie to yourself

But I know you already know
That women bring some unexplainable beauty to the world

I know you already know
Women should be treated like eggs
But left to soar like eagles
