I will be free

You think you know me

but its just a fleeting glimpse

you may try to capture me

but I am a woman

I will be free 

and that is the way it ought to be

You think you own me

but its just slipping sand

you may try to hold me

but i am a woman

I will be free

and that is the way it is meant to be

You think you can tame me

but its a deceptive stance

you may try to rein me

but i am a woman

I will be free

and that is how it will always be

You think you can woo me

but emotions lie deep within

you may try to bind me

but i am a woman

I will be free

and you should better let that be

You think you can hurt me

but its defeated by resilience

you may try to break me

but i am a woman

I will be free

and you have no choice but to let it be
