My Female Rules

November 26, 2017

Society, pushing and pulling at me to be this beautiful angel, this perfect cook, just because of the way I look

Take a shower, eat slowly, wear makeup because your a lady Oh how they hate me

Higher heels,more makeup, tastier food to get you a man with a big home and a rich fam

Stay at home, watch the children, do the dishes and serve your man: that was my predetermined, engraved, by society plan

Train your girl to be just like you and you boy to get a job, so he can become a wealthy man just like his dad

But I say no to this streotypical way, slapping society in the face

I am a woman a straight as hell I am, I don't need no man to hold my hand, make feel complete, and to put children in me

All I need is me I, don't care that I have made society angry
