Here are the lyrics since the sound quality is so bad:

So, what am I not supposed to have an opinion?
Should I keep quiet just because I'm a woman?
Call me a bitch cause I speak what's on my mind
Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled

When a female fires back
Suddenly the target don't know how to act
So he does what any little boy would do
Makin' up a few false rumors or two
That for sure is not a man to me, slanderin' names for popularity
It's sad you only get your fame through controversy
But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say

Chorus:
This is for my girls all around the world(around the world)
Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth
Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard
So what do we do girls, shout louder
Lettin 'em know we're gonna stand our ground
So lift your hands high and wave 'em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will
Can't hold us down

Nobody can hold us down
Nobody can hold us down
Nobody can hold us down

Never can, never will...

So What am I not supposed to say what I'm saying
Are you offended with the message I'm bringin'
Call me whatever 'cause your words don't mean a thing
Guess you ain't even a man enough to handle what I sing

If you look back in history it's a common double standard of society
The guy gets all the glory the more he can score
While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore
I don't understand why it's OK,
The guy can get away with it the girl gets named
All my ladies come together and make it change
And start a new beginning for us, everybody sang

Chorus:
This is for my girls all around the world('round the world)
Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth(repect your worth)
Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard
So what do we do girls, shout louder
Lettin 'em know we're gonna stand our ground
So lift your hands high and wave 'em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will
Can't hold us down (less)

5. Set me Straight
This song is pretty cool, but do you really think Obama's attitude toward Clinton is one of condescension because she is a woman? I ask this as a totally honest question. I find the suggestion very surprising, because in my understanding, Obama has generally been very respectful of Clinton (and all his opponents) and has repeatedly acknowledged that she is a great public servant and would be a good president. So my question to the person who posted this song, or to any Clinton supporters here, is why do you think Obama disrespects Clinton because she is a woman? And I ask this with total respect. If he said something or did something that was mysoginist or even just mildly dismissive because of her sex, I definitely want to know because then I think he should be criticized for that and I think his supporters should seriously reconsider him if this is true. So, please, explain the reasons for this view and point out specific instances in which he or his campaign surrogates have done something that made you feel this way about him. I'm not interested in things that his mere "supporters" have done, because that doesn't necessarily reflect his attitudes and decisions, any more than your words are authorized by Clinton.

6. Ugh...They tainted one of my favorite songs for this bish.
the lyrics in the song describe what hillary does to obama more than vice versa.
