Feed Your Power!

Words are powerful.

Words set to music take on a whole new dimension of power and energy.

This is a song from the 70's by a singer/songwriter by the name of Helen Reddy. The United Nations dubbed 1975 the Year of the Woman and chose this song as the anthem. I encourage you to listen to this song, even if you have heard it before, as you read and ponder the lyrics. The power of owning your own inner strength as a woman is amazing!

Feed the power! Starve the weakness.

 

(Helen Reddy and Ray Burton)

I am woman, hear me roar

In numbers too big to ignore

And I know too much to go back an' pretend

'Cause I've heard it all before

And I've been down there on the floor

No one's ever gonna keep me down again

Oh yes, I am wise

But it's wisdom born of pain

Yes, I've paid the price

But look how much I gained

If I have to
I can do anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman

You can bend but never break me
'Cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'Cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul


Oh, yes, I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain

Yes, I've paid the price

But look how much I gained

If I have to

I can face anything

I am strong (strong)

I am invincible (invincible)

I am woman

I am woman watch me grow

See me standing toe to toe

As I spread my lovin' arms across the land

But I'm still an embryo

With a long, long way to go
Until I make my brother understand


Oh, yes, I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to
I can face anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman

Oh, I am woman

I am invincible

I am strong

I am woman

I am invincible

I am strong

I am woman
