Several Different Names but a B#tch Ain't One!

Several Different Names but a B*tch Ain’t One

by Brittany Carson

In today’s society it should be a crime

how women of all ages have been objectified

What’s even sadder is the fact that some women answer to the names

that people have given to us like it’s a twisted little game

They call us tricks and b*tches and prance us around in thongs

Rappers disrespect and degrade us in most of their songs

And yet many grown women will still sing right along

And the majority of our young girls don’t even realize what’s wrong

with this picture that society has been painting about us for years

Just the thought of the oblivion almost brings me to tears

Young girls and all my ladies don’t you understand your worth?

You are full of purpose and potential! That’s why you were put here on this Earth

You are a classy lady who deserves to be treated with respect

Not an “around the way girl” who’s just looking to collect

You could never be a “dime” because you are worth more than gold

And you’re not a “gold digger” but it’s ok to dig goals

 “THOTs”? Are they serious? We are certainly not hoes!

We’re not dogs, cows, chicken heads, pigeons, or crows

We are daughters of the Most High King so we are royalty

Don’t allow Chris Brown’s lyrics to describe you as he questions loyalty

While I’m on this subject I might as well say

Inner beauty trumps outer beauty on any given day

A woman can offer the world much more than her curves

So don’t focus so much on appearance but on speaking kind words

I’m just spitting you ladies some knowledge and now I am done

Just know you may have several different names but a b*tch ain’t one!
