**"ALL PROCEEDS WILL BENEFIT @NOISEFORNOW TO HELP FIGHT REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE, INCLUDING ACCESS TO SAFE ABORTIONS. WOMEN'S RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS AND WE ARE NOT GIVING UP THE FIGHT"**


Every day I see more of our rights stripped away in America. The right to reproductive health in this country has become a luxury for the wealthy. The United States has the highest maternal death rate than any other developed country. Black women in particular experience maternal mortality two to three times higher than that of white women. Tennessee now has stricter abortion laws than the Taliban. This should not be a political issue, or a religious issue, this is a humans rights issue.

When we stand together and sing together we are stronger. Massive thanks to my friend Adia Victoria for joining me and our mutual hero, the legendary Mavis Staples for adding the wisdom and strength of her voice. Her art and activism have long inspired me and I’m grateful for her contribution to the song.

Thanks y’all,

Margo Price

lyrics

Fight To Make It

You can’t win on the very first try
You got to learn to fall before you fly
They say a woman’s place is in the home
Before she disappeared she proved them wrong

You gotta fight to make it
You gotta fight to make it
You gotta fight to make it
Yes you do



For some it's hard to understand
What it’s like to be born with a losing hand
How a dark skinned girl from poverty
Could change the world from a Bama bus seat



Yea you’ve gotta fight to make it
You gotta fight to make it
You gotta fight to make it
Yes you do


I remember sitting on my daddy’s lap
I was four or five or something like that
I’ll never forget what he said to me
Honey you can be anything you want to be

Yea you’ve gotta fight to make it
You’ve gotta fight to make it
Yea you’ve gotta fight to make it

You gotta fight, fight, fight just to make it

Yea you’ve gotta fight to make it
You’ve gotta fight just to make it
Yea you gotta fight just to make it
Yes you do
Yes you do
Yes you do
