Break free from the golden cageWrite poetry with the ink of your rageThe hefty chains of yesterdayAre the ropes to climb higher today;Seize the dayToday is your time to sayBreak the glass ceilingThat is how there will be healing.
Time is running outDiscard the prejudices and doubtYou're not just a pretty pictureTo embellish that diamond frame;Seize the dayDon't let oppression be the wayBreak the glass ceilingSpeak up without fearing!
Call the artists and the rebelsSing the anthem of unityThe word 'feminism' is not dirtyIt's unfiltered, bold and about liberty.Seize the dayToday is your time to slayBreak the glass ceilingEquality is all that we're seeking.
