This song is about SA and gaining the voice to say no and fighting for your autonomy in a society that just lets it happen and victim blames.
lyrics
*TW: SA*
I don't feel special even though you swear I do
I don't want to stay but I'm so afraid
I feel like I have no choice
Here I go, what do I do? To make you stop?
What do I say, what can I do? To be okay?
No, I won't let you have me
No, I won't feel sorry for you
'Cause my existence matters more than you make me feel
And no one will force me to stay when I say no
Don't tell me it's my own fault when you should've known what means no
Verbal and non-verbal cues, haven't you heard?
Maybe you need to learn to ask first..
But here we go again, this time I won't give in
Let's see how I make it...
I'll put up a fight, I have every right to fight for my life tonight
No, I won't let you have me
No, I don't feel sorry for you
'Cause my existence still matters more than you made me feel
And you won't force me to stay when I say no
