Title: Cultural Reasons

Don't hide behind 'cultural reasons' for your hatred... of me

Most women in Somalia have suffered female mutilation... you see

A set of traditional 'values' you've had handed down the... family tree

Just because it's been your people's way of life for generations doesn't make it right... baby

Don't hide behind your religions, your God didn't preach hate, with... glee

There is no excuse you can brush me off with, no cultural reason for suppressing... the Free
