Singer Demi Lovato pushed back against the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade one year ago with a new song.

On June 22, Lovato, 30, took to her Twitter page to promote her new song “Swine,” which advocates for abortion rights.

“It’s been one year since the Supreme Court’s decision to dismantle the constitutional right to a safe abortion, and although the path forward will be challenging, we must continue to be united in our fight for reproductive justice,” she wrote in the caption of a snippet of her music video.

Lovato, who previously identified as “non-binary,” explained she wrote the controversial song, “to amplify the voices of those who advocate for choice and bodily autonomy” and proceeded to call biological women “birthing people.”

She stated she also wrote the song for “everyone who stands up for equality, to embrace their agency and fight for a world where every person’s right to make decisions about their own body is honored.”

In the lyrics, Lovato compared banning abortion to banning the right to practice one’s religion.

“Picture your faith, imagine your God and even your Holy Bible is suddenly bannеd, do you understand?/Now doesn’t that sound entitlеd?” the lyrics read.

Continuing, “It’s your book, but it’s my survival/ We gotta grow ’em, we gotta raise ’em, we gotta feed and bathe ’em/And if you won’t, they call you a witch to burn at the stake in Salem/Thought by now they’d change, but we’re still waiting.”

In an interview with Vogue in August 2022, Lovato explained the inspiration for the title of her previous album “HOLY FVCK” was about her rebellion against the church.

“I wanted to take my power back. I grew up in the church as a Christian, and I had some anger towards it,” she shared.

Lovato added, “Being queer, I definitely felt like I was misunderstood. There was also a kind of sexual oppression that I felt came from the church.”
