Empowerment ist Selbstbehauptung, und Selbstbehauptung kann auch lautes Singen sein!
Life’s not worth a damn ´til you can shout out: „I am what I am“!!!
I Am What I Am
I am what I am
I don’t want praise
I don’t want pity
I bang my own drum
Some think it’s noise
I think it’s pretty
And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle?
Why not try to see things from a different angle?
Your life is a shame ´til you can shout out
I am what I am
I am what I am
I don’t want praise
I don’t want pity
I bang my own drum
Some think it’s noise
I think it’s pretty
And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle?
Why not try to see things from a different angle?
Your life is a shame ´til you can shout out
I am what I am
I am what I am and what I am needs no excuses
I deal my own deck, sometimes the ace, sometimes the deuces
It’s one life and there’s no return and no deposit
One life so it’s time to open up your closet
Life’s not worth a damn ´til you can shout out
I am what I am
I am what I am
I am what I am and what I am needs no excuses
I deal my own deck, sometimes the ace, sometimes the deuces
It’s one life and there’s no return and no deposit
One life so it’s time to open up your closet
Life’s not worth a damn ´til you can shout out
I am what I am
I am, I am good
I am, I am strong
I am, I am somebody
I am, I do belong
I am, I am good
I am, I am strong
I am, I am somebody
I am, I do belong
I am, I am useful
I am, I am true
I am, I am worthy
I am as good as you
I am, I am useful
I am, I am true
I am, I am worthy
I am as good as you
I am, I am good
I am, I am strong
I am, I am somebody
I am, I do belong
I am what I am

Sistaz Are Doin‘ It For Themselves
Now there was a time
When they used to say
That behind every great man
There had to be a great woman
But in these times of change
You know that it’s no longer true
So we’re comin‘ out of the kitchen
‚Cause there’s somethin‘ we forgot to say to you, we say
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
Standin‘ on their own two feet
And ringin‘ on their own bells, we say
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
Now this is a song
To celebrate
The conscious liberation
Of the female state
Mothers, daughters
And their daughters too
Woman to woman
We’re singin‘ with you
The inferior sex, has
Got a new exterior, yeah
We got doctors
Lawyers, politicians too
Everybody take a look around
Can you see, can you see
Can you see there’s a woman
Right next to you, we say
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
Standin‘ on their own two feet
And ringin‘ on their own bells
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
Now we ain’t makin‘ stories
Oh, we ain’t layin‘ plans
Don’t you know that a man still loves a woman
And a woman still loves a man
Just the same way
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
There was a time
When they used to say
That behind every great man
There had to be a great woman
But in these times of change
You know that it’s no longer true
So we’re comin‘ out of the kitchen
‚Cause there’s somethin‘ we forgot to say to you, we say
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
Standin‘ on their own two feet
And ringin‘ on their own bells
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
Sisters are doin‘ it, doin‘ it, doin‘ it
Doin‘ it, doin‘ it, doin‘ it
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves, yeah
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves, yeah
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
I said, “ Hey, hey, sisters are doin‘ it for themselves“
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
Sisters are doin‘ it for themselves
Von Annie Lennox & David Allan Stewart
