I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything you want done, baby
I'll do it naturally

I'm every woman
It's all in me
I can read your thoughts right now
Every one from A to Z
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa

I can cast a spell
Of secrets you can't tell
Mix a special brew
Put fire inside of you
Anytime you feel danger or fear
Then instantly
I will appear 'cause

I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything you want done, baby
I'll do it naturally
Whoa, whoa, whoa

I can sense your needs
Like rain unto the seeds

Of confusion in your mind
And when it comes down to some good old-fashioned love
That's what I've got baby, 'cause

Overall Meaning

The song "I'm Every Woman" by Chaka Khan is an anthem for female empowerment. The song portrays the idea that every woman has the capacity to fulfill any task or desire, no matter what it may be. The first verse declares that everything the listener could want or need is within the singer herself. Khan's ability to complete any request "naturally" suggests that it is built into her being as a woman. The repeated "whoa" in the chorus creates an almost spiritual level of emotion telling a message of one's self-worth.


In the second verse, the song details the singer's ability to tap into her intuition in order to read someone's thoughts and cast spells, which represent her control over sexual desire. The line "Put fire inside of you" depicts an almost mythical capacity to ignite passions, which highlights the idea of the female as a powerful force in relationships. The repetition of the chorus reinforces the message of universality; every woman is her own complete entity, with her own power and her own essence.


Overall, the song exudes a spirit of female independence and capability that is inspiring and empowering. It celebrates the idea that being a woman is a superpower, and that women are fully capable of dominating any space they enter.

@Vejur9000

One of the greatest voices of all time. A massive voice with incredible range, soul, power, and feeling,.

Music to climb mountains by.

From of the โ€œClan of No Bad Notesโ€... Aretha, Ella, Sarah, Whitney.

People forget, Chaka was also a beauty, with that face and body. Then you hear this voice, coming out of that face and body....

A legend of funk and soul greatness, in a class by herself, is Chaka Kahn.
