Bold

I am a bold woman
I opine from my own mind each day, yeah
I am not dangerous
I am only informed
They’re taking advantage
Of our propagandist democracy
Now we must seek back
Some deserved transparency
Like who gives you the money you seek
I did not know
That our simple rights
Could be so fragile
But it’s men in a room who debate
A woman’s reproductive fate
And today’s corporate tax break
Please raise our wages
‘Cuz they’re gonna keep raising our rent
I got an education
And now my student loans are breaking my bones
Just the interest alone
Money needs to leave politics
It’s literally making us sick
And we can’t tolerate it anymore
Can’t you see they’re not for you and me
Money needs
Needs to leave
Politics

Lust

Standard procedure here, sir
No disrespect to your good intentions
Rising to meet your expectations
Puts me astray from my own wants
It’s lust
It favors none of us
It betrays our self-trust
You know nothing about me
Only what you choose to see
You’re not even around me
To know how I would possibly be
I know that lust can really
Be just skin deep
It’s lust
It preys on all of us
You know it, too
It preys on all of us

Mutual Love

What do we have now, baby
We clearly don’t see an error
In our raw attachment
Time strengthens ties
To each other’s mind
And so, I have grown to know
That there is nobody
Who can calm me like you do
And at the exact same time
Make me expand my mind
Surveying me
I see that I may be naive
In feeling more free
But, please do not dispel
My elation towards the sensation of
Being in a mutual love
When you’re near me
I never need to
Try to be happy

Courage to Part

I thrive through my ever observant eye
When you cried, never once did I not oblige
And you being mine, I had to ensure your
Time wasn’t wasted solely
On dream after dream without owning
That you
Never really tried
I’m not gonna fall victim to you
Whatever you may do I will always
Hope for the best
For you, for you
And I’ve returned
To the creativity I had earned
I’m right where I belong
Finishing all my unfinished songs
And I’m back to being
Free
Free
My time will no longer be wasted knowing
That we can’t ride this wave together without both drowning
Thank you, for doing the deed
I did not fall victim to you
You had the courage to do
What I had wanted to
