*TW- mentions of sexual harassment*
Men say my body is a temple
say I'm an angel
call me divine and holy
cover me in a veil of innocence
until they see the skin
all of a sudden I am demon
Men say treat your body with respect
but then call me pretty tits
when I walk by them
say take the compliment
when I ask for respect
Men say act a hoe get treated like an object
never mind that a girl is not an object
boys who sleep around are kings
but girls are sluts by breathing
Men say hey beautiful nice ass
and scream ugly bitch
when I say no
because they are too childish
to handle rejection
Men call themselves men
but they aren't men.
They're boys.
- a real man treats a women with respect
