Got a lot farther by working a lot harder

"And every day while slaves were being slaughtered and carted
Away across the waves, she struggled and kept her guard up

"Then a hurricane came, and devastation reigned
Our women saw her future drip, dripping down the drain

"Moved in with a cousin, the cousin committed suicide
Left her with nothin' but ruined pride, something new inside
A voice saying
“Y/n, you gotta fend for yourself.”
She started retreatin' and readin' every treatise on the shelf" russia sang.
"There would have been nothin’ left to do
For someone less astute
She woulda been dead or destitute
Without a cent of restitution
Started workin', clerkin' for her late mother's landlord
Tradin’ sugar cane and rum and all the things she can’t afford
Scammin' for every book she can get her hands on
Plannin' for the future see her now as she stands on (ooh)
The bow of a ship headed for a new land
In New York you can be a new women" america yelled.
"In New York you can be a new women (Just you wait)
In New York you can be a new women (Just you wait)
In New York you can be a new women
In New York, New York
Just you wait!" Everyone sang.
"Y/n L/n (Y/n L/n)
We are waiting in the wings for you (waiting in the wings for you)
You could never back down
You never learned to take your time!
Oh, Y/n L/n (Y/N L/n)
When the world sings for you
Will they know what you overcame?
Will they know you rewrote the game?
The world will never be the same, oh" everyone sang"
