HDSE Studio - To Be A Woman Lyrics

I can't hide myself
I don't expect you to understand
I just hope I can explain
What it's like to be a woman
It's a winding path
Where they judge more about who you are
It's not just what you feel
But what you balance inside your home
Yeah, I know this life can really push you down, uh
You want to shout but you keep the peace, uh
Carrying burdens you've been shouldering
Yet masking all the emotion, as a woman, that stays hidden
That we can't break down when life is tough
Unconditional giving to family, kids, and all we love
We're taught that we must play our roles
And no one really sees our weary souls, yeah

As a woman, we must find our way
Our role is to nurture, care, and stay
No applause for you if you're unpaid
Your worth overlooked and your pains unswayed
And if you ever rise above and find that place
And meet someone who you cherish and share your space
You might feel the love you give is why they remain
And when you try to say it, you'll state

I can't hide myself
I don't expect you to understand
I just hope I can explain
What it's like to be a woman (what it's like to be a woman)
It's a winding path (it's a winding path)
And they judge more about who you are (judge about who you are)
It's not just what you feel
But what you balance inside that home

Don't give up, keep striving
As a woman, our children are our beacon
And our mothers' choices shape us, and we emulate them
So they hide their pain
As we inherit their strength and sometimes their strain
No wonder many women feel so constrained
All the emotions they must contain
They fight the battles, often unseen
Then face themselves and their own dreams
Then reach for support, hoping to find
A way to heal their own mind
Then stumble again and then realize
They'll have to rise up on their own, it's their life
It's the circle of life, as a woman, you endure
Your worth isn't known until your silence is heard
And that's when they start to see
The strength of a woman when she's free
That's why we feel
We can't hide ourselves
We don't expect you to understand
We just hope we can explain
What it's like to be a woman (what it's like to be a woman)
It's a winding path (it's a winding path)
And they judge more about who you are (judge about who you are)
It's not just what you feel
But what you balance inside that home (inside that home)
That home
It's not just what you feel
But what you balance inside that home (inside that home)"
