Endangered Species lyrics

I am an endangered species

But I sing no victim's song

I am a woman, I am an artist

And I know where my voice belongs

I am a woman, I exist

I shake my hips, I clench my fist

My skin is dark my body is strong

I sing of rebirth, no victim's song

I am an endangered species

But I sing no victim's song

I am a woman I am an artist

And I know where my voice belongs

They cut out my sex, they bind my feet

Silence my reflex, no tongue to speak

I work in the fields, I work in the store

I type up the deals and I mop the floors

I am an endangered species

But I sing no victim's song

I am a woman, I am an artist

And I know where my voice belongs

My body is fertile, I bring life about

Drugs, famine, and war, take them back out

My husband can beat me, his right they say

And rape isn't rape, you say I like it that way

I am an endangered species

But I sing no victim's song

I am a woman, I am an artist

And I know where my voice belongs

I know where my soul belongs

I know where I belong
