I'm a china, glass doll girl, people think I'll break.
Problem is they don't know how much I've already had to take.
And putting me on a shelf was never my idea of fun.
Tough times growing up...
Barely having any food to eat.
Cable getting cut off,
And surviving with out heat.
Momma struggling to keep me safe
And tried to buy me clothes.
Women and men are taught
from the time of babes
to rate a woman's beauty on the size of her dress
a man on the size of his bicep
to discount a girl on the length of her skirt
