We Matter Too (Women Veterans) is a witness song.

It was written in response to the repeated dismissal of women’s military service — the reduction of lived experience into stereotypes, labels, or silence. This song does not argue, persuade, or perform strength. It simply names what is true.

Aligned with Nothing Is Required of You, this piece offers sound as witness rather than instruction. It holds the reality that women enlist, deploy, serve, and sacrifice with the same commitment and cost as any man — and that this truth does not require validation to exist.

The song also acknowledges what is too often left unspoken: that service does not shield women from abuse, violation, or retaliation, and that these experiences are not separate from military life, but part of its lived reality for many.

You are not required to agree.
 You are not required to understand.
 You are not required to respond.

The song remains regardless.

We Matter Too (Women Veterans) exists for those whose service continues in the body, the nervous system, and memory long after discharge — and for anyone willing to listen without demanding explanation.

In a world that constantly pushes for more—more doing, more fixing, more noise—this track offers something different: permission to stop. Not for a moment of escape, but for a moment of return.

The sound unfolds slowly, with spacious tones and gentle resonance, creating a place where nothing is required and nothing is rushed. It’s the space between breaths, the quiet after overwhelm, the
