Cut Her Some Slack

By Dawn Robertson

May/2017

From a beautiful land 

Way before time

A vision was had

That a woman was right

For eternity following 

Men would truly try

To tear down that woman

And make her cry

Men always thinking

A woman's easier to control

Without self confidence 

Without friends or her goals

But the contrary realism

Is far distant from that

They just want their man

To love them back

Woman sacrifice and go without

And not say a word

They keep things inside

And bury their hurt

Until one day she just lets it out

Often years in the making 

She purges the pain

Often crying and shaking

Then she is good again

And just carries on

Creating a better life for others

With her wings on

So the next time you feel

That your woman is crazy

You must think again

She is far from lazy

Just take five minutes

And cut her some slack

Let her know you see her struggles

And that you have her back

You will become even closer

And she will love you even more

There's nothing better to have

Then a woman you adore

She will glow like the heavens

And make you feel complete

Because she is born to love

And you are born to receive

Sing Your Song

This angel has no cloudy bed

No pillow on which to lay my head

What did I do so wrong

I'll pack my wings and try again

Do it over and over again

Until I can sing your song

With the words you once wrote 

Upon my heart it's true

I'll carry the message home to you

The melody will fly like you do

In and out the words ring through

I will get my wings to fly soon

To again be by your side 

But until then I wait 

To see you at Heaven's gate

I hope one day to make you proud

And have a bed in the clouds

To be where you now fly

One day I will be by your side

With my wings open wide

You will say I did it right, I did it right

Will You Shine Today?

Do you ever listen to the voice inside

It's telling you not to hide instead

Shine your beauty upon me 

You see I've been hurt before it's true

But I see the beauty that is you

Don't let them erase your essence 

All the talent that you have inside

Well if not used will surely die

Stand up and show them your presence 

Take a stand for what you believe 

Every dream you can conceive 

Dont be afraid of what they say

Steadfast and true is the way

They won't ever forget you name 

Change your life today

Listen to the voice inside

Telling you not to hide

They will try to say it's wrong

But don't listen to a single word they say

Haters be throwing swords all day

Just walk away, shake it off

Do you ever listen to the voice inside 

Don't you ever run and hide

Be who you are with pleasure and pride

Open up to a better day

No matter what may come your way

You are a gift light to treasure 

Take it from me I've seen somethings it's true

But I still see the beauty in you

Do you ever listen to the voice inside

Telling you it's your time to shine...so shine

Will you shine today?

Wishing everyone a beautiful and productive day! 🦋

I am a published lyricist and may be able to help....just let me know what you need at this time. Generally I write a lyric and then collaborate with a musician to complete a song. I find that is my preference. If this system works for you let me know. Have a great day, Dawn Robertson
