SHE DESERVES TO LIVE 🎵👑
By VINTESS (Written by Vivian Vincent )
A Song for Women in Abusive Marriages
INTRO — Spoken
This song is for every woman
Who smiles outside but cries inside…
For every woman who has been told,
“Endure it, you are a wife.”
No!
Love should not make you afraid.
You deserve peace.
You deserve dignity.
You deserve to live.
It's VINTESS...
VERSE 1
She wakes up every morning with a smile on her face,
But nobody knows the tears she hides away.
She covers the bruises, she covers the pain,
And tells everybody, “I'm okay.”
He said, “I love you,” but love became a prison,
Every little mistake became another beating.
She lost her voice, she lost her confidence,
But deep in her heart, she still has a reason.
Mama, don't blame yourself,
Sister, don't be ashamed,
What happened to you is not your name,
You are more than your pain.
PRE-CHORUS
If he loves you, why are you afraid?
If it's love, why are you always in pain?
God never called your tears a marriage,
And violence is not the price of being a wife.
CHORUS
She deserves to live, she deserves to breathe,
She deserves a love that brings her peace.
No more crying, no more hiding,
No more living in fear every night.
She deserves to live, she deserves to shine,
She deserves a love that treats her right.
Sister, stand up, don't lose your voice,
Your life is precious, you still have a choice.
Oh-oh-oh…
You are not alone.
Oh-oh-oh…
You deserve to live.
VERSE 2
She stayed for the children, she stayed for the family,
She stayed because society said, “Be patient, darling.”
But every night she prayed, “God, please save me,”
While the house that should be home became a tragedy.
She remembers the woman she used to be,
Strong and beautiful, full of dreams.
Now she's looking in the mirror asking,
“Where is the woman I used to see?”
But there is still fire inside her soul,
There is still a story waiting to be told.
She can rise again, she can start anew,
There is a better life waiting for you.
PRE-CHORUS
Don't let anybody tell you
That suffering is your destiny.
Don't let anybody silence you
When your life is crying for help.
CHORUS
She deserves to live, she deserves to breathe,
She deserves a love that brings her peace.
No more crying, no more hiding,
No more living in fear every night.
She deserves to live, she deserves to shine,
She deserves a love that treats her right.
Sister, stand up, don't lose your voice,
Your life is precious, you still have a choice.
BRIDGE — Afro-Gospel Worship
Lead:
Who told you that you must suffer?
Women:
Not my God!
Lead:
Who told you that pain is love?
Women:
Not my God!
Lead:
Who told you that you have no future?
Women:
Not my God!
Lead:
Who told you that you cannot rise?
Women:
Not my God!
All:
I will rise!
I will stand!
I will live!
I will heal!
I am not the scars on my body,
I am not the tears in my eyes.
I am a woman with a destiny,
And I refuse to die inside!

Sister, no dey suffer in silence,
Your life no be something to gamble with.

If you need safety, reach out.

You carry life, you carry destiny,
You carry tomorrow inside you.
FINAL CHORUS
She deserves to live, she deserves to breathe,
She deserves a love that brings her peace.
No more crying, no more hiding,
No more living in fear every night.
She deserves to live, she deserves to shine,
She deserves a love that treats her right.
Sister, stand up, don't lose your voice,
Your life is precious, you still have a choice.
She deserves to live…
She deserves to love…
She deserves to heal…
She deserves to dream…
She deserves to LIVE!
OUTRO — Spoken
To every woman behind a closed door…
Your pain is real.
Your life has value.
Your voice matters.
You are not weak because you want peace.
You are not selfish because you want safety.
And you are not alone.
You deserve to live.
