letra de the pen belongs to us - joseph egbujonuma
[verse 1]
you still think helpmate means hush, huh?
you still think softness don’t hold weight?
didn’t jacques-garvey say influence ain’t weakness?
didn’t she show you nurture could be sharp as blade?
[verse 2]
but she still said “support the men,” right?
ain’t that just submission in a new dress?
ain’t that just a sweeter way to say “stay behind”?
i ain’t tryna lose myself in no man’s progress
[verse 3]
nah, sis that ain’t what she meant
she called them out too said “wake the h-ll up.”
said stop dragging your feet, be a man, be enough
she wasn’t under them she was building them up
[verse 4]
still feels like wе carry the load and the blame
expеcted to love, to write, to fix, to flame
you sure she wasn’t just making peace with her cage?
[verse 5]
nah, she cracked the lock and gave us the page
she said the pen belongs in our hands too
that we write the revolution just like the men do
said even the unlettered women had truth
and maybe they held the most beautiful proof
