The New Her

THE NEW HER

SHE USED TO BE ME
SHE USED TO BE LIKE ME
SHE WAS LIKE ME 
BUT SHE WAS NOT ME
SHE WAS NOT LIKE ME
SHE HAD CAPABILITIES
BUT NOW THEY HAVE HER
SHE HAD TIME
BUT NOW IT HAS HER
THE NEW HER...
SHE WAS A GO SETTER
BUT SHE NEVER SETS WHATS FOR HER
THE NEW HER...
CHANGE IS GOOD
HOW GOOD? 
THE NEW LADY IN TIPPIE TOES
THE NEW HER IN HILLS
THE NEW HER IN TIGHT CLOTHING
WHAT TO PORTRAY?
NOTHING BUT THE PEOPLES EYES TO FEED ON
WHAT HAPPENED?
WHAT OCCURRED?
LOOKS BAD RIGHT?
NO IT IS NOT
SHE HAS BECOME INDEPENDENT
A WOMEN OF MY OWN AGE
THE NEW HER...
IT HAS CREATED HUMANITY IN HER
AND CREATED RESPECT IN HER
JUDGE NOT FOR YOU DO NOT KNOW
THE NEW HER.....
THE NEW HER....
