Lyrics Glass Ceiling - Pyrophoria

Over time the scars will fade
Failure is the point of the crusade
We're beaten before we're made
We're beaten so long we're not afraid
Hellcat sharpens the blade
Resistance is a trick of the trade

The man that holds you down is out of date
We're coming for you, just you wait
Don't speak down to me again, for your sake
I will not bow to someone I will overtake

A little girl sees her likeness on tv
Making strange waves in a giant, bitter sea
"Mommy she looks like me"
It's an uphill battle and always will be
For every lock there's a hidden key
We will not stop fighting 'til everyone is free

The man that holds you down is out of date
We're coming for you, just you wait
Don't speak down to me again, for your sake
I will not bow to someone I will overtake

There's a black woman in the white house now
There's shattered glass all over the ground
We are often beaten, we are often bound
But the Queen sits on her throne renowned

You can't keep up 'cause you can't keep up down
You can't keep up 'cause you can't keep us down
