Alicia Keys told the New York Times that this song is a reminder, to herself, that "even when I'm out, and I'm just a mess, and I'm not perfect, and everything's not great, and I'm struggling to figure out what is what, I'm still a superwoman." (Source Superwoman Songfacts.)
It earned Keys her second consecutive Grammy Award for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance at the 51st Grammy Awards, and was also nominated for Outstanding Music Video and Outstanding Song at the 40th NAACP Image Awards.
Superwoman
Alicia Keys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing seems complete
I stand up and I'm searching
For the better part of me
I hang my head from sorrow
State of humanity
I wear it on my shoulders
Gotta find the strength in me
I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Even when I'm a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I'm a Superwoman
For all the mothers fighting
For better days to come
And all my women, all my women sitting here trying
To come home before the sun
And all my sisters
Coming together
Say yes I will
Yes I can
I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Even when I'm a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I'm a Superwoman
When I'm breaking down
And I can't be found
And I start to get weak
Cause no one knows
Me underneath these clothes
But I can fly
We can fly, ooh
I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Even when I'm a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I'm a Superwoman
Oh ooh

Everywhere I'm turning
No matter where I look or what I do, I cannot find fulfillment
Nothing seems complete
Everything around me feels incomplete or lacking
I stand up and I'm searching
I get up and actively try to find what's missing
For the better part of me
I seek the version of myself that is better and more complete
I hang my head from sorrow
I am weighed down with sadness about the state of humanity
State of humanity
The current condition and behavior of human beings
I wear it on my shoulders
I carry the burden of society's problems on my own shoulders
Gotta find the strength in me
I need to find the inner strength to persevere through these difficult times
I am a Superwoman
I am strong and capable, even in the face of adversity
Yes I am
I affirm and believe in my own strength
Yes she is
Others recognize and acknowledge my strength
Even when I'm a mess
Even if I'm struggling or feeling overwhelmed
I still put on a vest
I still try to protect and take care of myself
With an S on my chest
Symbolizing that I am a superhero or protector
Oh yes
Emphasizing my strength and confidence
For all the mothers fighting
Acknowledging and appreciating the hard work and struggles of mothers
For better days to come
Hoping and working for a better future
And all my women, all my women sitting here trying
Encouraging and empowering women who are striving to improve their situation
To come home before the sun
To achieve their goals and return home before nightfall
And all my sisters
Addressing and supporting all fellow women
Coming together
Uniting and cooperating
Say yes I will
Agreeing to work towards positive change
Yes I can
Believing that one can achieve their goals
When I'm breaking down
During times of emotional distress
And I can't be found
Feeling lost or hopeless
And I start to get weak
Feeling vulnerable or powerless
Cause no one knows
Because no one else is aware of my struggles
Me underneath these clothes
My true self, hidden beneath my appearance or exterior
But I can fly
Despite feeling low, I still have the ability to rise above it, like flying
We can fly, ooh
Others can also rise above their struggles and attain their goals
Oh ooh
Expressing feelings of enthusiasm, encouragement, and empowerment

lets analyse the lies which are world wide believed:
lie: schools are of use (fact. schools keep slavery alive and stands for dumbing down the population of mankind)
lie: moon and mars landings, (fact: even masons know they cannot leave – earth is closed system, unless you want to drown, there is no other place created for us to live in.)
lie: news channels share truth (fact: these are for politic propaganda)
lie: voting matters (fact: politic propaganda)
lie: money has a value of its own (fact: it is just a tool of this world, which value has been agreed upon world wide, it should be not loved, only used as needed.)
lie: NASA lies (globe and all....) (fact: NASA stands for TO DECEIVE and 2 members expose their own lies, one is still alive, the other (Wernher Von Braun) place a clear clue on his own gravestone) - you havn´t searched - have you?
lie: the lgbtq++++ propaganda (fact: it is a part of masonry depopulation agenda, 500 000 000 souls, thats their goal - Georgia Guidestones!)
lie: Evolution and the dinosaurs. (fact: mankind is not hybrid kind)
to keep stating that there was an evolution, then we ain´t humans, we aint then mankind, we are then hybrids. Are you a hybrid?
Lie: holidays (xmas, Halloween, new year eve and so on) (fact: PAGAN HOLIDAYS, to praise BAAL, the god of this world)
lie: U.F.Os (fact: they are demons/evil spirits in high places, against whom we fight daily = spiritual warfare)
lie: rules and laws rule the world (fact: signs and symbols of masonry do)
lie: believe in being educated (fact: found daily living with the lack of knowledge)
lie: religions are ways to heaven (fact: JESUS CHRIST is only way to heaven. Religions, no matter its name = masonic garbage)
lie: our dead loved ones stay around to “ghost” (fact: hunting and ghosting is job of demons, not of humans. We, humans, come from GOD and return back to HIM and all the stories of having been seen a ghost – terrifying, scary, dark, cold – again no job of analysing been done here by you– right?)
Lie: Humans have no immune system and we need vaccines as these save lives (fact: humans HAVE IMMUNE SYSTEM and vaccines are created for one or two purpose: to kill or to cripple. If you took all their poison shots then later in life comes all kinds of medical diagnoses = vaccines crippled you – remember that)
lie: there is no GOD (fact: There is GOD, who redeems sinners and created us directly from the dust of the earth: Psalms 139:14 (KJV)
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.)
to keep claiming that there is no GOD and we aint created directly from the dust of the earth, we soon run out logic, regardless to we place “evolution” in our claims or not and our dead, whats happening to them as they sleep in their graves? - they decay away, becoming the dust form which they were taken, if it ain`t so then we are simply reality deniers.
lie: 911 was terror attack (fact: 911 was an inside job, meaning the work of your loved government)
lie: Tv watching is of use (fact: television (TV) = tell a lie vision, a weapon for our minds, keeping it under MK ULTRA)
half lie/half truth: earth is a stage where everyone plays rolls (fact: earth is stage, a freemasonry checkerboard, where both side, black and white are masons and humans both in politics and regular souls = the naive public gets daily played)
lie: children are government to raise (fact: children are parents to raise, it takes 2 to make them, it takes 2 to raise them).
Lie: we live already in the matrix (fact: we live since birth in BABYLON which is to become “matrix” as Man – us, must merge with machine aka take the mark of the beast and then matrix aka false reality becomes to be 100%)
lie: humans are not intelligent enough (fact: it is forgotten fact, we all are intelligent, many have suffered the illness from this world, being indoctrinated by masons, cause who give us the school system which we have? masons did, because they need slaves.
21 lies, should i go on?
This world ain´t deceived, out there to deceive?

@shaynesworld
sitting here literally CRYING my eyes out. I remember when I was a child and always called my mom a superwoman because of this song and that statement will ALWAYS be true. Her working 3 jobs as a single mother just to keep a roof over our heads and food in our stomachs. That was true love and true strength. Sending love to all the mothers and women out there. WE ARE SUPERWOMEN!
