I used to fold myself small Smile for the room Say yes when I meant nah Swallow my own truth I wore their approval Like a dress too tight Now I cut the threads clean Step back in my light No more bending No more shame I know my name I know my name No more people pleasing I choose me, I choose me Freedom in my breathing I choose me, I choose me Women on a rise now We dance into the morning Women on a rise now We dance into the morning Bare feet on the hard ground Dust on my skin I came through the long dark Still a fire within Sisters in my corner Loud as thunder calls When one of us stands tall We make the whole wall fall No more bending No more shame I know my name I know my name No more people pleasing I choose me, I choose me Freedom in my breathing I choose me, I choose me Women on a rise now We dance into the morning Women on a rise now We dance into the morning Let the old fear break Let the loud truth ring I was made for more Than their small, small thing Hands up, hearts open We come through strong If you want my life You better sing my song No more people pleasing I choose me, I choose me Freedom in my breathing I choose me, I choose me Women on a rise now We dance into the morning Women on a rise now We dance into the morning (We dance into the morning)
