Heya
Ooh
Ooooh
This issue is systematic
For my sisters hard to cope
Yeah, hard to manage
Oh, so harsh and tragic
This won't just go like magic
Let's expose these wicked habits
Tow them out of traffic
We been told what a real man is
So we grow into this fallacy
Time to unlearn all the rubbish, yeh
Burn toxic masculinity!
You're not responsible for what happened to you
All your feelings are valid
Don't listen to their malice
Cuz you're more than that, yaeeh
You're more than that, yah
If there is anything I can do for you
Just know that I am out there fighting for you
Cuz you're more than, yaeeh
You're more than that, yaaaah
Not all that that glitters is gold
Not all that shines is the light
I will not do what I'm told
If what I am told isn't right
Not all that that glitters is gold
Not all that shines is the light
I will not do what I'm told
If what I am told isn't right

Trigger warning, this is a trigger morning
To wake up in a world complacent, too far gone and
Sister, brothers, sons, their daughters, and kids
How many hurt by wandering hands
How many hid?
How many have been told
This stay our dirty secret
How many weren't believed
When they didn't try to keep it inside
This sickness breathes on a lie
Survivors while they grieve
And they cling to their lives
Society that celebrates the face on the flyer
Whose accountable for abuse in our lives?
Violence in the places where shame shouldn't be
I am not the blame for your violation of me!
How many hurt by family that can't ever speak?
My mother's mother's mother's generation that bleed
Enough!
Boys don't always have to act tough
Let it out and just cry when these waters get rough
Take the time to just listen and don't ever judge
With arms wide open, we need healing and love
I'm sorry for what happened to you, my love
I'm sorry that it happened to you, my love
Not all that that glitters is gold
