[Verse 1]
I used to have long hair

I used to cry a lot
I used to think I was a woman

Now you all think I'm man enough
But I got so used to pulling the short stick
And I don't know what to do with all this privilege
[Chorus]
'Cause I got a voice now
I got power

But I got so used to pulling the short stick
And I don't know what to do with all this privilege
[Chorus]
'Cause I got a voice now
I got power
But I can't stand it
Yeah, I got a voice now
I got power
And I can't stand it

I'm tired of people trying to erase me
Yeah, I'm tired of people trying to erase me
Yeah, I'm tired of people trying to erase me
Yeah, I'm tired of people trying to erase me
[Outro]
But I got a voice now
I got power
But I can't stand it
