(no subject)
I can't seem to talk to you cause' we don't relate.
You get everything and i get hate.
I get stereotypes and you get humanity.
I talk about my problems, and it grates
On your ears doesn't it, it's hard on your eyes?
You act like the world is colorless, well surprise
Color really matters when you're the one drenched it
for you it must be pretty hard to realize
that when your cousin gets stopped it's not because he's black
when my cousin gets stopped, that's just the matter of the fact
and when I get told I talk white, I laugh it off, but it's hurts
Can't I talk like me? And do black girls usually not talk gracefully?
Or are we just broke down bitches, hoes, and sluts?
Ugly broad nosed women who should just keep their mouths shut.
And keep their legs close, or another baby will pop out
Under-privileged, over-sexualized, and outspoken smuts.
You might think it's okay, to say “you're nice for a black girl”
But honestly, screw you. Do you even hear yourself?
I'm honestly overwhelmed by the wealth
of stupidity i've heard in my life, and the sad thing is
that a lot of you think this okay and right.
So this is me signing off, because I'm so done with right now.
I'm so exhausted I don't even know how
to even communicate anymore when most of my friends don't understand
what it feels to be a black girl in a white man's land.
