15 Songs Every Bad Ass Feminist Needs Before & After The Women's March

wallpapercave.com

Last year's worldwide Women's March was the largest single-day protest in U.S. history. Women and allies from all over the world, marched untied, to advocate women's rights, reproductive rights, healthcare reform, and to protest anti-women acts within society and the current political administration.

The success of this march has led the formation of an annual women's march. Every feminist needs these songs to continue to inspire them and remind them how badass they really are in preparation for the women's march and long after, to keep the momentum of the force of women strongly apparent.

1. "Part Of Me" - Katy Perry

Feminist lyrics : Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows / But you're not gonna break my soul/ This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me

2. "Girl On Fire" - Alicia Keys

Feminist lyrics : Oh, we got our feet on the ground / And we're burning it down / Oh, got our head in the clouds / And we're not coming down / This girl is on fire

3. "Sit Still Look Pretty" - Daya

Feminist lyrics: Oh, I don't know what you've been told / But this gal right here's gonna rule the world / Yeah, that is where I'm gonna be because I wanna be / No, I don't wanna sit still, look pretty

4. "NO" - Meghan Trainor

Feminist lyrics: All my ladies listen up/ If that boy ain't giving up/ Lick your lips and swing your hips/ Girl all you gotta say is / My name is no / My sign is no / My number is no / You need to let it go

5. "Brave" - Sara Bareilles

Feminist lyrics: Innocence, your history of silence / Won't do you any good / Did you think it would? / Let your words be anything but empty / Why don't you tell them the truth? / Say what you wanna say / And let the words fall out / Honestly I wanna see you be brave

6. "Fight Song" - Rachel Platten

Feminist lyrics:And all those things I didn't say / Were wrecking balls inside my brain / I will scream them loud tonight / Can you hear my voice this time? / This is my fight song / Take back my life song / Prove I'm alright song / My power's turned on / Starting right now I'll be strong

7. "You Don't Own Me" - Grace ft. G- Eazy

Feminist lyrics: Don't tell me what to do / And don't tell me what to say / Please, when I go out with you / Don't put me on display

8. " Me, Myself, & I " - G- Eazy x Bebe Rexha

Feminist lyrics: Oh, it's just me, myself and I / Solo ride until I die / Cause I got me for life / Oh I don't need a hand to hold / Even when the night is cold / I got that fire in my soul

9. "Flawless" - Beyoncé Ft. Chimamnda Ngozi Adichie

Feminist lyrics: We teach girls they cannot be sexual beings / In the way that boys are / Feminist - the person who believes in the social, political, and economic equality of the sexes / You wake up flawless / Post up, flawless

10. "Hey Girl" - Lady Gaga Ft. Florence Welch

Feminist lyrics: Hey girl, hey girl / We can make it easy if we lift each other / Hey girl, hey girl / We don't need to keep on one-in' up another / Hey girl, hey girl / If you lose your way / Just know that I got you

11. "Woman" - Kesha

Feminist lyrics: I'm a motherf***ing woman, baby, alright / I don't need a man to be holding me too tight / I'm a motherf***ing woman, baby that's right / I'm just having fun with my ladies here tonight

12. "Revival" - Selena Gomez

Feminist lyrics: I feel like I've awakened lately / The chains around me are finally breaking / I've been under self- restoration / I've become my own salvation / Showing up, no more hiding / The light inside me is bursting, shining

13. "Titanium" - David Guetta ft. Sia

Feminist lyrics: I'm bulletproof nothing to lose / Fire away, fire away / Ricochet, you take your aim / Fire away, fire away / You shoot me down but I won't fall, I am titanium

14. "Just Like Fire" - Pink

Feminist Lyrics: Just like magic, I'll be flying free / Imma disappear when they come for me / I kick that ceiling, what you gonna say? / No one can be just like me anyway

15. " Hey Hey Hey " - Katy Perry

Feminist Lyrics: Cause' I'm feminine and soft, but I'm still a boss, yeah / Red lipstick but still so raw, yeah / Marilyn Monroe in a monster truck

March on and let these feminist anthems continue to inspire you as the flawless, motherf***ing woman you are

Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.
