Everywhere I'm turning Nothing seems complete I stand up and I'm searching For the better part of me I hang my head from sorrow State of humanity I wear it on my shoulders Gotta find the strength in me I am a Superwoman Yes I am Yes she is Even when I'm a mess I still put on a vest With an S on my chest Oh yes I'm a Superwoman For all the mothers fighting For better days to come And all my women, all my women sitting here trying To come home before the sun And all my sisters Coming together Say yes I will Yes I can I am a Superwoman Yes I am Yes she is Even when I'm a mess I still put on a vest With an S on my chest Oh yes I'm a Superwoman When I'm breaking down And I can't be found And I start to get weak Cause no one knows Me underneath these clothes But I can fly We can fly, ooh I am a Superwoman Yes I am Yes she is Even when I'm a mess I still put on a vest With an S on my chest Oh yes I'm a Superwoman Oh ooh
