No words for Maya Angleou

Yes that is I... a PHENOMENAL WOMAN... why do you ask?
I'm border line sensational and my face? No mask
MEN flock around me like a bird's nicotine. Not possible you say?
Well m'dear, my hair is long, my hips are wide, and these lips don't play
You may say that my CONCEIT is a little old fashion compared to your modern list
But hey! Never mind the hatred, munipulation, and dis-
Respect is a 7 letter word gentleman, use to your advantage
You say I'm unfaithful, uncompromising and hard to manage
Humph! Well I may have change baby but I keep it all in a jar under my bed
So let me take you on a ride, a journey to show u THE LESSON ahead
I am loved, I am strong, I am powerful, and I know where I belong
I have a purpose, I enjoy life, and I know I'm headstrong
You may say 'oh she's been TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL' and she's a 'saved' woman now
But I do admit as such- a newfound blood. sweat, and tear on my brow
I used to be that girl who followed ever one around
That girl who saw a PASSING TIME as a way to stay bound
In my feelings, in myself, but never again will I fall
WHEN YOU COME it'll be the best showtime of all
After I pick back up, after I make the crooked straight, you'll see the me that I am
I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BIRDS SING, why a beautiful pearl springs free of that cluttered clam
I've experienced heartache, headache, backache, this ache, that ache and I stand STILL
I RISE from the depths of despair that kept me hostage, those chains I've killed
Everything you see me do, everything I accomplish from here on out
Every label, every right turn, every obstacle overcome, every assurance changed from doubt
I make the calls, I call the shots, I give myself the pleasure by making success the key
All I do for me, by me, beside me, atop me, underneath me, I do so in REMEBERANCE of me
