I am a good woman
I see it in myself,
All that is pure and true,
Regardless observers’ concerns
I am a good woman
Proudly stood by
Lords
And defended their vision
And helped them birth it
To a stage beyond a dream
I am a good woman
Almost losing myself
On a the altar of another’s happiness
And not judging them
For fighting for what they believed
Was best for them
See?..I am a good woman
I may not have the words
To battle through
To convince or prove
That i’m a field of gold
But I am a good woman
And i’ve made mistakes
But i stand unashamed
Because i could afford by grace
The wisdom to cultivate
The goodness in me
Till all could see
that…
I am a good woman
I may not have the words to battle through
Or a history that conveniently proves
My worth nor flatters my grace
But its a knowing within ..So strong…
that even when i doubt myself
It comes back to remind me
That i once was a good friend,
A great girlfriend
And would surely make
A strong and magnificent Queen
and mother in the years ahead
I am a good woman
And even if the world won’t hear me out
I stand with myself and dance
Because i know
that the goodness within
is worth a chance
