Don’t teach me to cover myself,don’t leave a dupatta on my shelf,
Instead, tell them loud and clear,
And just teach them not to leer
I know enough cautions, enough advice,
Teach them, or pay the price,
I don’t want pepper spray or a knife,
I don’t want to be scared to death for my life
Teach them, or pay the price,
I don’t want pepper spray or a knife,
I don’t want to be scared to death for my life
Teach them respect, teach them space,
Teach them, for once, to look at my face,
I'm a person, not a piece of meat,
Don’t expect me to cover up to my feet
Teach them, for once, to look at my face,
I'm a person, not a piece of meat,
Don’t expect me to cover up to my feet
Just let me breathe, let me live,
is that too much for you to give?
I am half the population, and I still have to plead,
to grow a good nation, to help me plant the seed.
is that too much for you to give?
