Witness Lyrics by Maryze
What we pass down to our daughters
We must first heal in ourselves
I let him swim in my waters
And he drank up all that was left
We make believe with our fathers
That they will all be worthy men
They’ll take our spring and our summers
Yet we still cling to our lovers back
She isn’t weakness
She is the witness
How will you explain to your daughters
When they see just what is left?
What will you have to lose in the fires
To see there is blood on your hands?
They thought they could take all our power
But do they realize where they stand?
She isn’t weakness
She is the witness
She isn’t weakness
She is the witness
She isn’t weakness
She is the witness
She isn’t weakness
She is the witness
We watch you fight with each other
Deciding who is to blame
Would you recognize your own mother
Blind with denial and shame?
She isn’t weakness
She is the witness
She isn’t weakness
She is the witness
She isn’t weakness
She is the witness
She isn’t weakness
She is the witness
