Thought that I could be your Jesus Christ
You kept wanting me to die for you
Raise me up to fall back down
Left me a little stranded, yeah
Now my knees are growing stronger
No need to carry your words on my back
No man, no man will ever know my truth
They can't understand it, yeah

No man I see, no man I see
Will ever play me down like they're better than me, yeah
No man I see, no man I see
Will ever make me feel like they're stronger than me

Oh yeah, go tell me it's alright
You watch my life like it's a rating
Most influential, then lonely and confused
I'm just a woman that will always be portrayed
The strong woman, woman
I'm looking back, I see my heroes
The ones that taught me everything I know
Now I'm flying higher, landing on my pot of gold

No man I see, no man I see
Will ever play me down like they're better than me, yeah
No man I see, no man I see
Will ever make me feel like they're stronger than me

He don't know, he don't yet
He don't know, he don't yet
He don't know, he don't yet
He don't know, he don't yet

No one said it'd be easy, really
Every day a new feeling
Bust through a million ceilings
Breaking all the rules
We are blameless, shameless
The nameless should be famous
The battles you haven't seen us
Define who we are

No man I see (no man I see), no man I see (no man I see)
Will ever play me down like they're better than me, yeah
No man I see (no man I see), no man I see (no man I see)
Will ever make me feel like they're stronger than me (hey, yeah)
No man I see (no man I see), no man I see (no man I see)
Will make me doubt myself, tell me what I believe, yeah
No man I see (no man I see), no man I see (no man I see)
Will ever make me feel like they're stronger than me

He don't know, he don't yet
He don't know (he don't know yet)
He don't yet (he don't know yet)
He don't know (he don't know yet)
He don't yet (he don't know yet)
He don't know (he don't know yet)
He don't yet (he don't know)
He don't know, he don't yet
He don't know (soon you will)
He don't yet (soon you will know, you're gonna see)
He don't know (all the women gonna rise up)
He don't yet (all the women gonna rise up)
He don't know (all the women gonna rise up)
He don't yet (oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
