Too Much

Sometimes as a woman You will be just too much Maybe you'll be too ambitious A man will tell you to slow down No one likes a girl who has dreams Because dreams turn into ideas And women with ideas are feared and dangerous God forbid we see Hillary become president one day! Perhaps you'll be too big A man will not be able To wrap his greedy arms Around your body And he will put you down for that Do not let this get to you Never shrink yourself To become more palatable. You could also be too smart You can show him things He never knew before Your intellect will shine bright And scare him away Do not go chasing after him You might be too pretty He will look at himself in the mirror And compare the reflection to you He will notice as you stand side by side That more eyes will be on you Than on him And he will become jealous And tell you to stop wearing makeup Leave him Because you just don't need That kind of negativity Eventually you will realize That you will be too much woman You will be too strong for him He won't be able to handle that No one likes a woman that can Hold her own Your personality will be bigger than his He will dull in comparison And he will begin to strip you down Make you bare There will be No more girl, no woman, no human left The only thing that is there Is flesh, bone, fat, and muscle But that is exactly what he wants He will reduce you to nothing So he can be everything Do not let him win Sometimes people will have to learn That as a woman You will just be too much
