Because you know I'm all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
I'm all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
I'm all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
I'm all about that base
'Bout that base
Yeah it's pretty clear that a change is due
But we will make it, make it
And I will join with you
Cause when we organize face-to-face
We see all the right women
In all the right places
I see the teachers working 'round the clock
We know that they're mistreated
Come on now, make it stop!
If you love GABRIELA, just raise em up
Cause every inch of you is agit from the bottom to the top
Yeah my mama she told me that women hold half the sky
She says Maria Clara was foolish to be so shy
You know we won't get no justice if we are just standing by
So we put up our fists as we get organized
Because you know I'm all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
I'm all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
I'm all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
I'm all about that base
'Bout that base
We're being militant
Go ahead and tell em that a woman's place is in the struggle
And once again, put your fists up!
Cause every inch of you is agit from the bottom to the top
Yeah my mama she told me that women hold half the sky
She says Maria Clara was foolish to be so shy
You know we won't get no justice if we are just standing by
So we put up our fists as we get organized
Because you know we're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
We're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
We're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
We're all about that base
'Bout that base
Because you know we're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
We're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
We're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
We're all about that base
'Bout that base
Because you know we're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
We're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
We're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
We're all about that base
'Bout that base
Because you know we're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building (Abante! Babae!)
We're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building (Palaban Militante!)
We're all about that base
'Bout that base, base building
We're all about that base
We're all building that GABRIELA base
