Walking Lyrics by Nina Ettridge

2020

I'm just walking, cruising by
Shoulders back, eyes raised, head held high
My only crime is the clothes on my back
But they don't cut me any slack
They shout
Because they own me, but don't know me
Insert me into their game, where the prize is my shame
Place the blame on my face, on the shape of my waist
On the moving of my hips, the words come out of their lips
And they say
I don't know you
But I'd like to
Perhaps in more ways than one
I'd just like to havе some fun
And it doesn't matter how you feel
Bеcause you're here for me to see
It doesn't matter
If you're in shatters
Come here, baby
You're all for me
Walking down the street
And should I talk
I'm asked how it was I walked
What was I wearing?
Was I first staring at them?
Should I complain
I'm told everyone has it the same
This is just the way it is
No point clenching a fist
Should I retaliate
Then I'm definitely asking for it
My attention, even anger
Is their permission to linger
And say
I don't know you
But I will soon
Close your eyes and imagine what could be done
We're gonna have us some fun
And it doesn't matter what you think
It's not written in ink
You don't matter
Your worth is shattered
Come here, baby
Take care of my needs
Walking down the street
Here's to you, street-callers
Day by day, you follow us
But the turning of your heads
Won't get you into our beds
And your words against our backs
Prepare us for your attack
And when it comes, we won't be
The ones with broken bones
'Cause we're just walking
Cruising by
Shoulders back, eyes raised, heads held high
And that's how we'll stay
An envisionment of worth
Because these are the days we've found our nerve
