Why does she pace pt2

de Ivy Lab

I can't walk to my car late night while on the phone
I can't open up my windows, when I'm home alone
I can't go to a bar without a chaperone
I can't wear a mini-skirt, if it's the only one I own

I can't use public transportation after 7PM
I can't be brutally honest when you slide into my DM's
I can't go to the club just to dance with my friends
And I can't ever leave my drink unattended

But it sure is a scary time for boys
Yeah, gentlemen band together, make some noise
It's really tough when your reputation's on the line
And any woman you've assaulted could turn up any time

Yeah, it sure is a scary time for guys
Can't speak to any woman or look her in the eyes
It's so confusing, is it rape or is it just being nice?
So inconvenient that you even have to think twice

I can't live in an apartment if it's on the first floor
I can't be wearing silk pajamas when I answer the door
I can't have another drink even if I want more
And I can't make you feel invalid, unseen, or ignored

I can't jog around the city with headphones on my ears
I can't speak out against my rapist after 35 years
I can't be taken seriously if I'm holding back tears
And I can't ever speak earnestly about all these fears

But it sure is a scary time for dudes
Can't text a girl repeatedly asking for nudes
Can't make a girl have sex when she's not in the mood
And what gives her the right to give you attitude?

Yeah, it sure is a scary time for men
Girls like to act like you're to blame and they're the victim
Her dress was short and she was drunk, she's not so innocent
Thank God, your dad's the judge and you won't be convicted

Oh, wait a minute
Ok, when you put in that way
I guess it's

'Cause it's not such a scary time for boys
They've always had the upper hand, they've always had a choice
It's time for women to rise up, use our collective voice
The day to vote's November 6th, so let's go make some noise
