You can not make me shrink away and hide
Only to pull me out when you need me by your side

You can not make me stay
For when you want to play

You can not tell me who
I need to be
Who the world should see

 Under your weight, you can not make me curl
That is not who I brought to this world

I will not be destroyed
I am not a toy

I am the strong woman
Feared by the unworthy man

I will stand tall
Never will I crawl
