Pick up, pick up, pick up, come on
I've always pondered how we got here, wasn't part of the plan
I'm all for equality, but of extreme feminism I'm not a fan
Claim to empower women by blaming all your problems on a man
Tar all of us with the same brush just because you can 
What happened to I am a woman, hear me roar
Now you're obsessed with using the victim's card
Not satisfied with the same rights, you want more 
Think living in a developed area is so hard 
We're conscious there's the occasional bad eggs
But you won't afford us courtesy or respect
If the world were a cup of tea you would be the dregs
It's possible that someone else's perspective is correct
Out to make me feel ashamed of who I am and what I do
Appropriation, patriarchy, concepts are a myth so hold up 
You don't know a thing about our lives, so stop believing what you're reading and you're hearing 
They compare us to the Sith
Media portrays us, perpetrators to a slaughter, when we just want to be husbands 
Fathers to sons and daughters, sons to our mothers and fathers, and brothers to all our friends
We love and we are loved, to be honest that's the end
Why do we deserve to be fighting and dying in battle 
When the judges are refusing custody of our own kids 
You ain't saying nothing 'bout the homeless population 
Mainly men inside the patriarchy, got no place to live
You ain't saying nothing 'bout the false rape allegations while we fear for our careers 
A detriment to mental health and really it's enough to contemplate the biggest danger to a man 
Is not a heart attack but more than likely it's himself 

Had to face up to the holy trinity, depression, anxiety, toxic masculinity 
You preach man up but when there's a man down you're nowhere to be seen
Greater chance of prison, our options are limited, beyond and to infinity
Collective responsibility, I need to ask you, are we on the same team

We're in this together, let's make this world better, no sign of an exit, which lessens the pressure 
No way to solve it with an apology (Ayy) best to let go of past chronology (Ayy) 
Forget about the outcome, equal opportunity
It's right that you get justice, but not impunity
Need an excuse, can't take my name 
Your foolishness, don't shift the blame
I wonder how you got here, your gender's under attack
MRA is a protest to your protest, what on Earth is that
If I've learnt anything from my Mum it's that strong women bounce back
Against misogyny and maybe a pay gap
I don't get why if it's against the law
That anybody would pay women less
How would any men ever get hired
I'm no expert but it doesn't stand up to the test
Nothing can justify the abuse you've received 
Don't deserve the anguish from being harassed 
I'm not surprised that some women feel so aggrieved
Though society breaks the back of men, puts it in a cast
We're not out to make you feel ashamed of what you wear or who you love 
For fewer hours you should probably take a lower pay, come on now
Simple seems obvious to me but I guess that I'm a man so my opinion kinda doesn't matter anyway 
There are still places located ranging from poles to equator 
Where women have yet to receive teaching or a great education
Wherever women are succeeding, killing shame in those nations
We want to reason with the rest before we run out of patience 
My momma put the work in, smashed the ceiling of glass, by first creating a crack
Discrimination is back, fed up of the sanitary tax, and how the media act
It was hard to even have a child without her risking the sack
Emma Pankhurst didn't die so you could moan about some traffic lights
You'd rather get offended than defend your reproductive rights 
You'd rather bug the government for money like a parasite
You'll stand up for yourself but won't contest a foreign woman's plight 

I'm not the enemy of your policy, legal, professional, social equality
I'm an egalitarian, instead I query where these things have been
Your privilege is infallibility, no matter the whole extent of your villainy 
Save your online guillotine, I need to ask you, are we on the same team

We're in this together, let's make this world better, no sign of an exit, which lessens the pressure 
No way to solve it with an apology, best to let go of past chronology 
Forget about the outcome, equal opportunity
It's right that you get justice, but not impunity
Need an excuse, can't take my name 
Your foolishness, don't shift the blame
It's like we're two different birds on a perch 
Two different gamers in splitscreen 
The lack of understanding is what hurts
Girl I gotta ask you, are we on the same team

Hi, it's Mum here
We know you've been really busy with your album lately
Just wanted to see how you were 
Me, Dad and Bruv miss you very much and we hope you're enjoying your time away
Call us back soon, bye
