Hashtagyou'Rethrough
Don’t call me baby!
I’m nobody's doll.
Don’t call me sweetie!
I’m not a moll.
I’m not a cutie.
I’m not your “boo.”
If you try to abuse me,
#you're through.
I'm a brave person
a body all my own.
This is a free planet.
This is also my home.
If you didn’t respect that
there’s one thing to do.
Catch my drift when I say,
#you're through.
My silence is leaked.
The story is told.
This past will haunt me
although it is old.
I've met other people
who knew you too.
They read about me.
#you're through.
