Backstory:

One day I took notice of words that began with the prefix "mis".  I wanted to try to write a song using this prefix about a woman who wouldn't be misunderstood, etc. like she had in the past, a woman who is finally going to put her foot down and encourage other women to do so.

...Yes, I can say that this idea must have come about because I've learned to stand up for myself after having been mis'd by one too many people in my life.  (I won't mention them in print, but if you're curious, ask me!) ;-D

Lyrics:

                                                  
MIS'D 
(c) Lisa L. Medill 

Have you ever been 				
Misvalued, misused					
Yeah girl... me too					
I was everyone's welcome mat			
They'd walk over me and never look back	
		
Did you ever feel					
Mistrusted, mistreated				
Believing that is self-defeating			
There's a price I paid for the choices I made		
To give up my voice was a costly mistake
			
	(chorus)
	I was in a constant battle
	To prove that I was worth
	Just as much as anybody else
	On the face of this Earth
	Now I've armed myself with courage 
	I 'm gonna win this war
	Oh yeah, yeah
	I won't be mis'd anymore

Have you ever been				
Mishandled, or misled				
Did you get tangled in their web 			
Turn away from deceitful people who smile		
With a woman's strength not the heart of a child
		
	(chorus)

(bridge)
Accept no limitations
Seek no one's validation  
Meet your own expectations
Life should be a celebration

	(chorus)
	I was in a constant battle 
	To prove that I was worth 
	Just as much as anybody else
	On the face of this Earth
	Now I've armed myself with courage 
	I 'm gonna win this war
	Oh yeah, yeah
	I won't be mis'd anymore
	Mmm, mmm, no, no no
	I won't be mis'd anymore
	Mmm, mmm, no, no no
