I was not born to be a victim
To be bruised and ashamed
My dignity stolen
In a violent way
My pride ruined
Scarred for life
You were not born to be a victim
To be beaten and raped
Your innocence taken
By violent hands
Your peace
Punctured
We were not born to be victims
To be ravaged in our youth
To be injured by our habits
To be abused by life
To be dead
We demand a better life
Our human rights protected
Our homes protected
Our bodies respected
Our minds educated
Our life revered
