Endangered Species

[Intro]
I am an endangered species (Mhm, well)
But I sing no victim's song
(I sing no victim's song) (Well, well, well, well)
I am a woman (Hey, I am a woman)
I am an artist (Ooh, yes, I am)
And I know where my voice belongs
(I know where my voice belongs, mhm)

[Chorus]
I am an endangered species
But I sing no victim's songs
I am a woman, I am an artist
And I know where my voice belongs (Mhm)
I am an endangered species
But I sing no victim's songs
I am a woman, I am an artist
And I know where my voice belongs

[Verse 1]
I am a woman I exist
I shake my fist but not my hips
My skin is dark, my body is strong
I sing of rebirth, no victim's song

[Chorus]
I am an endangered species
But I sing no victim's songs
I am a woman, I am an artist
And I know where my voice belongs (Mhm)

[Verse 2]
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 stores
I type up the deals, and I mop the floors

[Chorus]
I am an endangered species
But I sing no victim's songs
I am a woman, I am an artist
And I know where my voice belongs (Mhm)

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
I am an endangered species
But I sing no victim's songs
I am a woman, I am an artist
And I know where my voice belongs
I know where my soul belongs (Mhm)
I am an endangered species
But I sing no victim's songs
I am a woman, I am an artist
And I know where my voice belongs

[Outro]
Ooh, I know where my soul belongs
Ooh, I know where I belong
Ooh, yee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
Hee, yeah, yeah
