Talk To Me Now

He said, "You've gotten tough"

'Cause my tone was curt.

Yeah and when I'm approached in a dark alley,

I don't lift my skirt.

In the city, self-preservation is a full time occupation.

I'm determined to survive on this shore.

You know I don't avert my eyes anymore.

In a man's world, I am a woman by birth.

And after nineteen times around,

I have found they will stop what you are worth.

Talk to me now.

I played the powerless in too many dark scenes,

And I was blessed with a birth and a death,

And I guess I just wanted some say in between.

Don't you understand?

In the day to day and the face to face,

I have to act just as strong as I can

Just to preserve a place where I can be who I am.
