Fighter
Every time you strike me I will fight
I am a women and you are a man
But don't you ever think that makes me less
I will defend myself
I will stand up
I am Strong
I will get right in your face
And yell
"You cannot hurt me."
"Don't you ever touch me again"
I don't care if it leaves me vulnerable for more
No matter what I will not back down
I will not give up and cry
I will fight back
And though it pains me to say
I may not have the physical advantage
But you will not define me
The bruises I carry are my armor
And I may not throw the first punch
But I'm a knock out
I am a women and you are a man
But don't you ever think that makes me less
I will defend myself
I will stand up
I am Strong
I will get right in your face
And yell
"You cannot hurt me."
"Don't you ever touch me again"
I don't care if it leaves me vulnerable for more
No matter what I will not back down
I will not give up and cry
I will fight back
And though it pains me to say
I may not have the physical advantage
But you will not define me
The bruises I carry are my armor
And I may not throw the first punch
But I'm a knock out

I may be the firstborn son of a wife beater, and the first born grandson of another wife beater, but I support any woman who is fighting against domestic violence. Rock on.

And its mix martial art ( variety of styles )
If its not writing ( I'm a novice ) its beating up a bag at get beaten up in sparring as a outlet, frustration release.

Not unusual for me this write brings to mind songs. I think there was a typo: "I am a women and you are a man". "a" is singular and yet you follow it with "women", rather then "woman".
