Anthony Saffery - The Future is Female lyrics

I heard Amy Poehler speak at the White House Her words hit me hard like a light bulb Fictitious depictions of girls must die out If we want to live in a world that triumphs I am just talking about loving the femme I ain't talking bout nobody else Toxic masculinity has to end I am just talking about loving ourselves You can catch me singing these words In a black Otherwild “Future is Female” t-shirt Like AY! Me, I got something to say Gender constructions just get in the way I've been playing drums since I was like 8 The future is female, the future is great! (Drum solo) The future is female The future is female Own your voice don't be afraid There's power in what you say Own your voice don't be afraid There's power in what you say How could girly ever be an insult? All the women I know are ones moving culture What would happen if we all would lead with a little less aggression more femininity? We have to value girls more than their looks The biggest threat is a girl with a book The system must make room for all that we do We've been bleeding each month till we gave birth to you! [speech] To me, “The Future is female” means that no longer will female qualities be subordinated to male qualities I want to live in a world that is collaborative A world that is emotionally intelligent A world in which we are linked and not ranked! The future is female The future is female Own your voice don't be afraid There's power in what you say Own your voice don't be afraid There's power in what you say The future is female The future is female The future is female The future is female
