The message of Chris Oledude’s IF A WOMAN HAD MADE THE WORLD is built around the simple but powerful idea, which is repeated and clearly described in the song. This is probably one of the strongest points of the song, as the message is clearly focused around the values of caring, sharing, and feeling. Chris Oledude doesn’t try to complicate the message but sticks to the simple language that makes each idea easy to understand and feel.

From the very first lines of the song, Chris Oledude creates the contrast between the existing world and the possible one created by women. This is emphasized through the idea that the existing reality is somehow incomplete and lacks something essential, but this something is not related to the material but the emotional and moral side of life. The repetition of the main idea is probably the strongest aspect of the song, which creates the feeling of longing, almost the protest against the existing state of the world.

In the first part, the theme of family, love, and emotional security dominates. Chris Oledude describes a world where people feel safe and where love is not only talked about but also understood. The part where people feel unafraid is very significant, as it shows that the change does not only affect the external world but also the inner world of a person. The fact that Chris Oledude relates the woman-dominated world to peace within a person adds emotional depth to the lyrics.

As the song progresses, the themes of a woman-dominated world extend to hunger, poverty, and inequality. Chris Oledude describes a world where there are no hunger, poverty, and inequality, and where people share and not grab everything. The most interesting part of this part of the song is that it does not sound so idealistic. Instead of describing a perfect world, Chris Oledude keeps the theme of a woman-dominated world focused on simple, natural actions of caring and giving. Although this part of the song is idealistic, it does not sound so, as the theme of a woman-dominated world focuses on simple, natural actions of caring and giving.

The break section of the song introduces a stronger and more direct tone. Chris Oledude does not only imagine but also calls for a change. The theme of a woman-dominated world targets both men and women in a very straightforward way. The part where Chris Oledude describes that history has confined the role of a woman and that it is time for a change introduces a sense of urgency and purpose to the song. It relates the theme of a woman-dominated world to a social movement.

Finally, Chris Oledude re-enters his imagined world, and this time it is for peace between nations and for there to be no fear. The lyrics indicate that competition and conflict have contributed to the world as it is today in a bad way. However, if people had a different mindset, it would be a harmonious world and people would be able to trust each other. Again, the theme of feeling unafraid is brought up and connected to the entire song. It is apparent that for Chris Oledude, it is not about power and success in this world, but about people feeling good.

Another good thing about the lyrics is that it is related to real-life inspiration. The fact that the song is originally inspired by and dedicated to Chris Oledude’s mother and later also to his wife makes the lyrics more sincere and real. However, even without the inspiration in mind, there is still a sense of respect and admiration that is reflected in the entire song. Chris Oledude is not only dreaming of a different world but also appreciating the women who influenced his own life.

The language used in the entire song, including the lyrics of IF A WOMAN HAD MADE THE WORLD, is simple and effective.

The fact that the song is not trying to criticize in a harsh sense is also appreciated in the sense that it is trying to convey a different perspective in a more positive sense and leaving the reader with an inspiration that change is possible if people want to appreciate these qualities more in their lives.
