Why should I swallow my pride?
Because it bothers the person I sit beside?
You look
No you stare
No…….
You glare at me with your nose turned to the air
As if to faze me
But I refuse to run and hide in despair
So that’s a HA! To you
And an even more immense HA! To you
Your heartless persuasion and cynical ways
Aint shit to what I’ve endured during my days
You have made a juvenile attempt
To deplete me of every ounce of passion I have
Yet here I am
Laughing at your ass
So I ask you this
Why should I swallow my pride?
Because it bothers the person I walk beside?
You despise
No you abhor
No…..
You HATE what I can create myself to be
As if to deconstruct my being
But I refuse to fall victim to the Stereotypical ME
So that’s a HA! To you
And a massive HA! To you
You say someone of my nature will NEVER make it
You even go on to say how I’m a waste of life
And to your dismay I breathe extensively
You’ve made an effort to break me down
Yet here I stand
Making a spectacle of your ass
So again I ask you this
Why should I swallow my pride?
Because I refuse to be with the sex I was supposedly created to sleep beside?
You speculate
No you question
No……..
You demand that I don’t put a ring on her hand
Land of the free?
What does that mean?
If I cannot FREELY love she who contains the same characteristics as me
So I guess that’s supposed to be a HA! From you
And a bitch slap in the face from you
You’re founded on a constitution of equality
Yet you discriminate so openly
With your picket signs and ignorant rhymes
Yet she and I are committed
Morally killing your ass
So again I ask you this
Why should I swallow my pride?
Because of who I am and my refusal to hide?
You know
No you think
No…….
You swear on the universe that I’m wrong
As if your way is right
Searching for a reason to justify the means
But you just can’t find a way to diminish me
So that’s a HA! To you
And an even superior HA! To you
You hear me but you try so hard not listen
Because you say my opinion doesn’t matter
Hmmmm… But still I write…. And still you read
Now you’re pissed off because I have the authority to make you pay attention to me
So here I am
Still laughing at your ass
So I ask you this once more
Why
Should I
Swallow
My Pride?
