In honour of International Women's Day I hereby post the lyrics for our song 16 Days. It deals with gender based violence (the 16 Days of Activism of the United Nations and the memory of the Mirabal Sisters) and letting go of toxic masculinity. On top of that it is a shout out to the art of Emma Ruth Rundle en her song 'Protection' in particular.
16 DAYS
She gave me 16 days
To access my hidden mind
It's teaching me
Breaking me
Deconstructing me
Building me anew
I found a form of true protection
It's in the tearing me down
To hell with false ideas of manhood
I’ll drag my pride through the mud
It's teaching me
Breaking me
Deconstructing me
Building me anew
She gave me 16 days
To assess my hidden mind
Commemorate the Sisters Mirabal
Fuck you and your patriarchy...
Fuck you and your patriarchy!
She gave me 16 days
To access my hidden mind
She gave me 16 days
To lay bare my humanity
