Have you noticed?

Women are ready to release their shame, to unlock their pain, to open up their brain, to get rid of the word insane.

We’re ready to drop the guilt, get off the tilt, and open the key to our freedom.

No longer held down by things that bound us before, we are here standing tall, we have opened our own door.

 

The shame that we’ve carried in jars on our head, at night before bed, some carrying until they’re dead…it’s done.

Fact is, there is no one or anything that can keep us from our faces pointed toward the sun.

 

Wounds healed, demons revealed, names brought to the surface of those who caused us pain.

We no longer protect them, nor will we continue to blame…we’re simply through with shame.

 

All we have is now, with our hearts wide open, our future ahead, understand…nothing has been broken.

You are whole, a prisoner no more, you no longer have to fight what you’re looking for.

 

The past is behind you, it’s even made you who you are: a strong, resilient, wise spirit that you are.

To live in peace with harmony by our side, the dance of celebration, no more tears to hide.

Bravo to you for everything you’ve done, you are here now, the search is over, share that with everyone.

 

We are free, enlightened as can be, our names will go down in herstory.

Together we’re ready to remove the mask, to reveal the past, to shine a light on the dark corners of our psyche.

To clear out the pain, to stop the game, of anything that is not like me.

 

We are different than before, fear no more, confidence in stride.

Shield going down, weapons on the ground, our strength is the belief inside.

 

The opposite of shame is esteem, learn my name, understand what I mean;

where I’m going, who I am, the power I extend through my hand.

 

I am removing my mask, I complete my tasks, to be who I’ve always wanted to be;

untethered, unabashed, with miracles meant to last, you no longer have to wait to see.

For it is settled now, I AM me.
