What Makes Me Dangerous:

I dont need a man's house of dreams, � � � � � � �
I have my own, � � � � � � �
And within this sanctuary, � � � � � � �
I built our home. � � � � � � �
� � � � � � �
These walls echo with strength, � � � � � � �
not with fear, � � � � � � �
I stand here with my God, � � � � � � �
this vision, never more clear. � � � � � � �
� � � � � � �
What makes me dangerous? � � � � � � �
Ha! Can�t you see? � � � � � � �
I don't have to depend, � � � � � �
on any soul, except for me! � � � � � �
� � � � � � �
I don�t need a man's anything � � � � � �
to light up my skies, � � � � � � �
I am the growth after the ashes, � � � � � � �
from them, I will always rise. � � � � � � �
� � � � � � �
In this world of noise, � � � � � � �
I'll sing my own song, � � � � � � �
With tenacity in my heart, � � � � � � �
I refuse to, again, be wronged. � � � � � � �
� � � � � � �
I won't shut my heart to true love, � � � � � � �
if it happens my way, � � � � � � �
But my needs are met, � � � � � � �
So come what may. � � � � � � �
� � � � � � �
It is welcome to come softly, � � � � � � �
like the early dawn�s gentle calls, � � � � � � �
But I won�t beg for it, � � � � � �
I�m content without the falls. � � � � � � �
� � � � � � �
So here�s to the fierce, � � � � � � �
the bold, and the free, � � � � � � �
The ones who don�t need � � � � � � �
to bend the knee. � � � � � � �
� � � � � � �
Come little birdies, it's time to be free.

Author's Note

"I had to spend every day doin' whatever it took to catch up and look where I've gotten us" -Georgia Miller, "Ginny & Georgia"
...because she's a badass character, while I'd never kill anyone, I get it.
I discovered this show 6 months ago, I cried & laughed because I know her pain & struggle, her willingness to do whatever it took to protect & catch up from messed up beginnings in life. It hit me hard.
I know society's perception of beauty was one of the few advantages given to me, the rest (degrees) I had to work for.
I recommend the show!! 😘
