I defied my man, and I defied his gods
I defied his commandments, so he took away my innocence
He laid me out real good, took from me what he needed
I didn't have no doubt, it was a greed they were feeding
And I'm not gonna be there in the morning, cause I prefer to mess around
No, I'm not gonna be there in the morning, cause society says I'm allowed
I'm gonna let you behead me, cause of what you think you know
I let evil upend us, it's what you think we owe
The children cry, then surrender, for lies that have been foretold
The mothers beg for your mercy, still you silence their soul
You won't fight to appease me, you want a perfect
And you fight women with women, so we don't look like men
I'm not gonna be there in the morning, cause I prefer to mess around
No, I'm not gonna be there in the morning, cause society says I'm allowed
I defied my man, and I defied his gods
I defied my man, and I defied his gods
I defied his commandments, so they took away my innocence
They laid me out real good, took from me what they needed
I didn't stand a chance, it was the greed they were feeding
I didn't stand a chance, it was the greed they were feeding
I'm not gonna be there in the morning, cause I prefer to mess around
I'm not gonna be there in the morning, cause society says I'm allowed
I'm not gonna be there in the morning, cause I prefer to mess around
I'm not gonna be there in the morning
Society says I'm allowed
I'm not gonna be there in the morning
