Daughter’s of Eden
Daughter’s of Eden
Its there in their eyes
The sorrow, the loss and pain
For what do they have to gain from life?
These women, these daughters of Eden
Reflected in the depth of their eyes
One can see their silent, yet very present strength
This is to be their destiny, their fate
For these women, these daughters of Eden
They are there among us all, ever present
Ever there, they appear as mother, sister
Lover or friend, these women of the world
These daughters of Eden
They suffer abuse at your brutal hands
Hands that should treat them with respect
But what can these women expect?
These daughters of Eden
All they ask for is love
You instead give them lies and deceit
All they need is to feel a sense of belonging
To know these daughters of Eden
Is to see strength, dignity and forgiveness
To love them is to hold them close
To your hearts, do not abandon them
These women, these daughters of Eden
We, you and I my child
Are of these women I speak of
For within us, you and I my child
As women, as daughters of Eden
Lies the key to discovery
The way for us all to move forward
To conquer and finally claim what is rightfully ours
Our claim to stake as daughters of Eden.
The right to be loved, respected and cherished
For all of time as it was written
So all of you heed our words that we speak
We the daughters of Eden
