I was doing business with a client today
Who was not very liberated I must say
His words left me burning all up round
my ears
My eye's were burning with angry tears
I worked to hard to gain respect, to gain
a reputation among my peers...but this
here...Just got me thinking.
Who do these people think they are?
I am a 'GROWN *** WOMAN"
Now don't get me wrong I respect all
men who are worthy.
But, if you come wrong or foul you get
a look that is downright dirty.
And the words that might come to some
may not be what you want to hear...
I am a "GROWN *** WOMAN".
Some people treat us like we still need some
special treatment...now I am sorry if I am
showing resentment. I been independent
since I was 18. Bought my first home when
I was 33. Lived there until I had enough of
a man not being a man, around the house.
So I closed up shop and sent the bullshyt
down south.
I am a "GROWN *** WOMAN"!
The chip on my shoulder that was falling away
found it's way back up on my shoulder today.
Some of the things I have to endure ,because
I chose to be an entrepreneur. Didn't like folks
telling me what to do 40 hours a week and not
even giving me equal time in which to speak.
I got damned tired and I am getting there again.
But, it's just to much money to spit on my friend.
So I write until the emotions subside.
And reschedule my meeting about this diatribe.
CUZ
I am a "GROWN *** WOMAN" and I can do that!
He asked if he said something wrong.
I kept my poker face on and proceeded to call
myself on the phone...Maybe it's just a cultural
issue...And Homeland brother's got to deal with,
doing business in a modern world.
And for God sake and yours don't make the mistake
of calling me girl!
CUZ
I am a "GROWN *** WOMAN"!
So that this miscegenistic pig would leave me alone.
