"Daughter" lyrics

"Daughter"

I shouted, I screamed
For the ones that could have been
Could have been me

I've seen girls die
I've seen mothers cry
It's a filthy price to pay to be free

I hope you have a daughter
You'll finally see
Innocence slaughtered
Is cheap equity

She takes like a whore
That's the world you don't wanna lose
But I'm a daughter too

So skin me alive
I don't wanna wear a body just for eyes
If I'm ugly, will you look at me
It's a filthy price but I want what's mine

I hope you have a daughter
You'll finally see
Innocence slaughtered
Is cheap equity

She takes like a whore
That's the world that you don't wanna lose
But I'm a daughter too
But I'm a daughter too

So when you'll be a father
You'll know what it means
Girls cut their hair for Mahsa Amini

She takes like a whore
That's the world that you don't wanna lose
But I'm a daughter too
But I'm a daughter too
