look, im not proud of where i came from
please judge me on who i am now
let’s put the bullshit away for a second here and get absolutely real.
the wrong person held my hand
through an abortion
that wasn’t my choice, by the way.
i still hate her for that.
too graphic for you? try living it
what you don’t realize
is that being witness to desire is privilege
you are by no means entitled to my affections
from abortion clinics and Stockholm syndromes
i’ve worked fucking hard to get here
i will not sacrifice and ounce of dignity
to appease you
or anyone else – i don’t owe you shit
madam,
maybe my rage is too strong
too pungent – maybe we know we are candle and firework
keeping a distance to not burn to quick to soon.
keep singing to me
