lyrics

Ledbetter

Think of every single time you told me
Don’t you know, honey, you can’t depose me.
Pay your dues and always climb the ladder
But we both know it doesn’t matter.

No need to go on the attack.
No need to become so defensive.

Equal treatment is too expensive.
Being assertive comes off offensive.
I’m so tired of being just a walk-on.
When you’re the emperor with no clothes on.

Don’t tell me to smile and just sit back.
Actions always have consequences.

[bridge]
Hold back, hold back, etc.
Don’t hold, don’t hold, etc.
Don’t hold back no, don’t hold back no…go, go, go, go

Your condescension makes me so nauseous.
Gonna take a hammer to this office.
Don’t know what you had until you lost it.
Time to learn who. the boss is.

This time there’ll be no holding back.
This time we’ll be tearing down the fences.
I said, this time there’ll be no holding back.
This time we’ll be tearing down the fences.
