I do hope most of you heard this at the #DNCinPHL … I did, and loved it.
I found the YouTube link, so I could replay it and learn it. Then realized I couldn’t remember all the words, and made this transcript. NOW with our Democracy under attack daily, I want others to have them so you can sing them in Republican faces… and Russian faces.
This is an anti-bullying song, for evryone who has ever been bullied, with some modifications for the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign. But hasn’t she been spectacularly bullied and bashed by the Right and Left wing, and the press, and men, long enough. Haven’t we all, American Women? It’s time to stand up and fight, take back our lives.
We may only have one vote (match), but we can make an explosion.
Here are the Lyrics.. Learn and Sing
'OUR FIGHT SONG, Take Back Our Life Song.

HERE IS the Rap Verse:
It takes a Village to raise a child,
prepare him to run a nation,
We got some hard choices,
but together we gonna make it.
We livin in history,
America take a bow
We've got to show the world..
Yep ... Women are equal now.
FOR HILLARY
Like a small boat, on the ocean, sending big waves into motion.... How only a single word
can make a heart open...
I might only have one match (vote)
but I can make an explosion..
and all those things I didn't say,
wrecking balls inside my brain,
I will scream them loud tonight
can you hear my voice this time?
THIS IS OUR FIGHT SONG,
TAKE BACK OUR LIFE SONG
PROVE WE’RE ALL RIGHT SONG ....
My power’s turned on,
Starting right now
I will be strong,
I’ll play my rights song...
And I don’t really care
if nobody else believes
Cuz I’ve still got
a lot of fight left in me.....
There's sometimes I chasin sleep Everybody’s worried about me
I’m in too deep..
Said I’m in too deep
Well, its been two years
and I miss my home,
but there’s a fire burning in my bones, ... Still believe.. Yeah I still believe...
in all those things I didn’t say
wrecking balls inside my brain,
I will scream them loud tonight ...
can you hear my voice this time?
THIS IS OUR FIGHT SONG,
TAKE BACK OUR LIFE SONG
PROVE WE’RE ALL RIGHT SONG
My power’s turned on,
Starting right now I’ll be strong
I’ll play my fight song,
and I don’t really care
if nobody else believes
Cuz I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me.....
It takes a Village to raise a child,
prepare him to run a nation,
We got some hard choices,
but together we gonna make it.
We livin in history,
America take a bow
We ve got to show the world..
Yep Women are equal now.
Like a small boat, on the ocean,
sending big waves into motion....
Like how a single word
can make a heart open...
I might only have one match (vote)
but I can make an explosion..
THIS IS OUR FIGHT SONG,
TAKE BACK OUR LIFE SONG
PROVE WE’RE ALL RIGHT SONG
My power’s turned on,
Starting right now I’ll be strong
I’ll play my fight song,
and I don’t really care if nobody else believes Cuz I’ve still got a lotta fight left in me.
