Bonafide Urban Chick

I may be a girl

but I sure as hell am not weak

I may be a lady

but I can do more than i speak

I may be a woman

who can bear your future 

But I am a person

a person, not a freak!

You think you can intimidate

and scare like a child

Oh, you don't know my temper

it is rare, but not mild

While I can birth

I can kill with equal ease

If you cross me the wrong way

I will do much more than just tease

It may be a joke for you to laugh at

but sexist comments are a bane for me

While you simply say and let it go

it is a scar insane for me

I don't know why you think that you will get away with it

do I look like someone who will forever live with it?

I will take myself and the comforts I bring

and move away from your traumas, in joy I will sing

It isn't running away when it is the harder thing to do

it is a choice, for even a woman must do what a woman must do

I think it is best if you get your act together soon

else the repercussions in the near future will turn you a loon

We all wish only the best for you because it is our nature

but things can change, as I can see in the near future

mothers, daughters, sisters and wives

don't forget, these are all real lives

So stop playing with us, you morons of men

you don't need to be a cock just because she is a hen!

I may be a girl

but I sure as hell am not weak

I may be a lady

but I can do more than i speak

I may be a woman

who can bear your future 

But I am a person

a person, not a freak!
