| Should I look back? |
| or should I look away? |
| Do I have a choice or is inevitable? |
| The laws of the land say that I must submit |
| Yet the laws of my body confuse me |
| I am a woman, bought and sold to bear the fruit of a seed that I do not wished |
| to |
| Plant, but perhaps there’s a way for me to survive, to strive, to, |
| maybe even be me, to be free, me to be, me to be free, me to be me |
| How would I rectify in my soul, once I meet my maker? |
| Black man, red man, brown man, white man |
| Where is my savior? |
| where is he? |
| or where is she? |
| Perhaps it is me |
| I have seen so much, but yet have experienced less than most dogs |
| I am smart, I am strong, I know how to survive, with the sophistication only |
| known to the cunningness of beings |
| I am the beginning, of the female hustling spirit |
| Hustling to survive, so that others may strive, to be something more than me |
| Hustling to survive so that others may strive to be something more than me |
| Hustling to survive so that others may strive to be something more than me |
| I am… |
| …Coin, coin |
| I am… |
| …Coin, coin |
| I am twenty five |
| There will never be pictures of me |
| Jones, Jones, Jones, Jones, Jones… |
