I Am Woman

I will not,
no longer,
no more is left of me.
The pain,
it hurts,
this is not my destiny.
I will not give in,
I will not let you win.
You will stop to listen,
this is a sin.
I will stand up,
I will fight,
soon you will see.
I will kick,
I will hit,
you will let me be.
I will cut the chains,
the power of She.
I will not be you victim,
finally I am free.
