Let It Burn

Every night, every day I walk these old streets Every step of the way I feel their eyes on me Always lookin' over my shoulder Car keys clenched between my fingers Every night, on every corner A dark presence that lingers Oh baby, cover up your breasts Shouldn't have worn that little dress Wasn't your crime to commit But you're still at fault for this mess Boys will be boys But girls must be women Bodies are just bodies As long as your daughters keep them hidden We favor a devil's reputation God forbid we believe her So she'll keep her pretty mouth shut In fear of how we'll perceive her Sick, twisted apparatus Freedom with no repentance We bestow upon the man Who deserves a death sentence So put a gun in your purse And guard your heart, honey 'Cause justice is dead And it's tombstone's made of money Our society's a tapestry Woven with threads of patriarchy So let's soak it in gasoline Cause there's a fire that's sparking Light the fire, light the fire, light the fire Light the fire, light the fire, light the fire Light the fire, light the fire, light the fire And let it burn Let it burn Every night, every day I walk these old streets
