I might Die
You say you’re a doctor, but you don’t care about
people not even the people in your state, you ran for governor and Alabama put
you in the mansion and we gave you a chance but you’ve danced all over our
rights and you’ve made us fight just to stay alive, you promised us under you
we would thrive, but that was all just one big lie
The time in that mansion must’ve fucked with your
head, because you thought you would take away our rights and we would roll over
and play dead. We’re stronger than that
and here’s the facts since you’ve been in that office we’ve all suffered and in
2014 you’ll suffer the same we’re sick and tired of all your games
The first thing you did was call people illegal and
sent workers out of state, our crops all rotted and our farmers lost money now
none of us have Alabama food to eat You punish the people who work and even
locked up some men from Mercedes Benz, they called all their friends and said
Alabama was bad Now we’re all sad, no new jobs have we seen
That was very bad but you didn’t end it there you
came after my vagina something I thought was mine, but you said not at this
time it’s got to be regulated my anger still hasn’t abated you claim that abortion is a sin but you don’t
mind watching immigrants or citizens starve so long as old white me continue
living large
It’s like you don’t understand birth control isn’t optional,
it’s a freedom we women have and we won’t let you take it away, we’re standing
together to ensure we’re all safe from the laws you intend to pass, you’re
signing the TRAP and we won’t take that.
Abortion is safe and you’re risking my life by taking my options away
You’re forcing me to give birth to someone I can’t
afford and the food stamp lady said I make too much to qualify for assistance.
I don’t have any way to resist this. I
only make 7.25 that’s barely enough for me to stay alive and there’s no way
that my child will thrive, I’m only 6 weeks along but the clinic says I’ll have
to wait
There aren’t enough clinics around for all women in
the state or even in this town and if I have to wait it’ll be too late what’s a
girl to do, I’ve heard there are things in my closet I can use and if that’s
what it takes that’s what I’ll do, The risk are high I might even die, but that’s
the TRAP I’m in, since you got to call HB57 a win
Why would you think I would have a child in this
state that doesn’t even believe that all children deserve an education? The schools here are the worst in the Nation
the New York Times says our kids don’t have a chance, this is a 3rd
world state my children deserve better than this fate more than 4th
rate in a 3rd world state
Alabama isn’t just a place it’s people who need to
eat, breathe and live happily we deserve to be treated as well any other people
in this country, We’re supposed to have all the rights in the United States
Constitution, but the men in Montgomery think they can take them away, but we
the people are saying NO WAY
