Proven Correct
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when I'm treated like a little girl
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when my back is up against an assuming world
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when I'm talked to like I have low self esteem
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when I gaze at you with a face so mean
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when my mind is being challenged by others
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when I'm approached by disrespectful brothers
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when I'm told I have no mind of my own
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when I'm being dumbed down by someone who is grown
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when my elders tell me what to do
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when I want to do what I want to do
The only time I have to prove myself woman
Is when I'm forced to change my tone
The only time I am approached as a woman
Is when I have proven that I am grown.
