Let Me Be Myself
Please let me be myself and
Let me be who Christ
Called me to be even if
You refuse to believe
Are your good conversations
So filled with ignorance that
You were insulting me in your heart
Before you even call me phone
If you're not around me everyday
Please don't bother calling me anyway
Your evil blame games are so played out
That my adulthood doesn't even want
You around
Me anymore that your words are such
A cold sore I've seen what those things
Look like and I hope I never see them
Just like you made every excuse
Every blame not to see me
I've seen you disrespect women Daddy
So how would you know how to
Respect your own female child
You've had children by 3 different women
So how can you show me
What stability is
You've had sex wherever you laid
Your hat
And had me
But you still insult
Treating me as is I was your mistake
When to Christ, I wasn't just
Another one your babies
