Daphne Willis Say Her Name
[V2:]
Her name was Tracy
Her name was Joe
Her name wasn't on her when they found her so they're callin' her Jane Doe
She went by Stacy
She went by Faye
She went by herself to a bar down the street one Saturday
[Pre Chorus:]
Some girls are long lost before they ever leave
And some never even get a chancе to show up
Some girls are nevеr asked what they wanna be
And told they're not enough
[Chorus:]
And I'll pray
For the day for the day for the day
All the girls all around the world will be free
And I'll say
Say her name say her name say her name
And keep fighting for equality
[V2:]
She wanted her own life
She wanted to choose
She wanted the wind in her hair someone to care and anything to lose
Under the radar above the law
Said packed 3 personal things and her hopes and dreams, last anybody saw
[Pre Chorus:]
Some girls are long lost before they ever leave
And some never even get a chance to show up
Some girls are never asked what they wanna be
And told they're not enough
[Chorus:]
And I'll pray
For the day for the day for the day
All the girls all around the world will be free
And I'll say
Say her name say her name say her name
And keep fighting for equality
[Bridge:]
She may have passed on but she'll never be gone
And it's always darkest before the dawn
In her eyes there's a fire that still burns for change
And I'm gonna grab that torch and carry on
Till the day that I have to pass it on
March along to the drum that won't fade
It ain't gettin any better when the story's the same
[Chorus:]
And I'll pray
For the day for the day for the day
All the girls all around the world will be free
And I'll say
Say her name say her name say her name
And keep fighting for equality
