Lyrics: Shaina Taub
Music: Shaina Taub
I know it's hard
I understand
Of course you're losing heart
We climb uphill for years and still
It feels like we're right back at the start
But that's exactly how those crooked kings want us to feel
Too bad for them
They're up against a queen with a spine of steel
You are the bravest person I've ever met
I've never seen anything daunt you yet
So are you gonna let them win?
Or will you show them who you are?
Show them our brazen, unwavering dynamo
Show them who you are
Show them you'll rip them to shreds if they tell you no
You think your nerve is about to give out
But the girl I see, glows brighter than any star
So go show them who you are
Show them
Show them who you are
Show them
Show them who you are
No no no, I'm not going to let you Alice Paul me this time
My mind's made up. I'm not going
Okay, that's fine
Go take a rest
Really?
Yes
Enjoy a pleasant break
Sit on your butt
And then do... what exactly?
Read a novel?
Learn to bake?
But when you tell your kids what mama did when things grew dim
Don't you wanna say you faced the villain down and demolished him?
Or maybe you would rather give up your stride
Let everyone think you just stood aside
I guess if that's what you'd prefer...
Let's show them who we are
Show them the stubbornest b***hes they'll ever see, ha
Show them who we are
Show them they ought to be frightened of you and me (They'll be)
They think our nerve is about to give out
But relinquishment's not in our repertoire
So go show them who we are
Damn it, why are you the only person I can never turn down?
You'll thank me when we're toasting your triumph on election night
They think our nerve is about to give out
But instead of backing down, we'll raise the bar (We'll raise the bar)
We'll raise the bar
When we show them who we are
Show them
Show them who we are
Show them who we are
