Monsters In Disguise

Some of you, for pleasure you pay,
Money to daughters of others, just to play.
While I stood tired, worn down by creeps,
Yearning for kindness, for love that keeps.

Now you act as if I crossed a line,
Dragging your kin into this fight of mine.
But where was the care when I cried for grace?
I’m someone’s daughter, deserving a place.

Battling monsters since I was a child,
You wear your charm, but your heart is wild.
You talk of love, yet thirst for flesh,
A hollow pursuit, a heart’s cold mesh.

What did I even ask for?
For you to pamper and protect,
To treat me like a girl, to respect,
When did I ask for your money or your thought
To build me up, or a good image you sought?

Yet you called me a gold digger, made remarks about my figure,
And when I unveiled my strength, you recoiled in fright.
How can I focus on living while guys like you
Strip another for living, like vultures in view?
Go ahead, laugh, call me crazy,
In this world where my body’s just a phase,
To think I ever felt sorry for you,
For a single indecent touch, a twisted view.

Countless stares, not just a mere graze,
Yet you prattle on of womanly praise.
I’ve faced the shadows, the lies, the fright,
But I rise like the dawn, reclaiming my light.

And my flame won't die with me, you see,
I will raise my voice so countless others can be free.
For every whisper of pain, I’ll turn into a roar,
Igniting the strength to break down the door.

My Tips Get The Job Done

Boy, you need gold coins and chains, To feel that silky touch. Honey, being with you meant My soul needed a retouch... You might like maple syrup, But I could never build anything with that softwood. It was like babysitting way into my adulthood... You think your presence made it feel like Niagara? Boy, it was drier than the Sahara. Who gave you the license to operate heavy machinery? You never deserved to be anywhere near this sanctuary. Asking women to "blow" you a kiss, When you are the one too "slow" to catch up, And all you are good for is a diss... You need to work because you don't know how real FORCE works. You get high on your stupid WARS — How would you ever know the language of the STARS ? Isn't it funny you were trying to teach me about fingers? When I can get myself to sing more with my ladyfingers ...

Game Of Fire and Ice

Hey Mister, Why won't you play a game of Twister? I promise I won't play coy. Won't you love it if I were your only toy? You can be the Lion in the boardroom, Then make me roar in the bedroom. Let's play the game of fire and ice. You bring the sugar, and I get the spice. I am praying by myself these nights, Drowning my moans when the city sleeps tight. We can play the game of Super Sonic, And then have our own race over some gin and tonic. So find me, like an app can find a phone. No, I won't bring out my Medusa and turn you into stone. I have been getting over my fears, Learned to make my tears into spears. You can take me as you like. We can go until we hear the third strike.

Call Your Wife... Call Your Mother...

Call your wife. Call your mother. Tell them how you talk to women like me when no one's watching— But of course, I'm the Outspoken B tch*, and you, the Outstanding Gentleman in your suit and tie. But sure— I’d rather be outclass than be hung like sea bass on your trophy wall, smiling silent while you call me “crass.” Your twisted kinks. Your polished lies. You think I won’t roar? That I’ll tuck in my shadow just to keep your sin safe? I own my dark. Loud. Proud. You will not cage me with your guilt-laced chains. If you were so happy choosing her over me, Then go flirt with her . Not me. Don’t you dare come here with your diluted apologies and leftover lust. I’d rather be The villain in your story Than your sidepiece in silence. Because I remember— You were a playboy then , You’re still a playboy now , And every time you smile and say “We’re still friends”… God, I puke a little. You know your name. Don’t play lost boy. Don’t hide behind your “Good intentions.” I used to care...
