How can you grow up?
With any kind of self-worth
Or faith in humans
When the one who abused you is out there roaming free without shame
As a child
Your mind splits in two
People only see one side of you
Al that rage built up inside and it’s still out of control
Hoping to forget but I never will
Why can’t we live?
Without any
FEAR, we grow up being blamed for our abusers actions
Because somehow it is our fault that we are sexually desirable
AS children to these sick fucks
How could someone deflower a rose?
Before it has bloomed?
How could you?
Ill survive in my garden of hate.

Yes you are punk
Yes you are crude
But you don’t have the same problems as I do
It’s easy for you to leave mainstream society
White middle class
You don’t understand how these problems that you claim to hate
Intersect
Standing in the crowd
Watching you play
Vague oppression is offensive when it doesn’t apply to you
Your meritocracy is not my fantasy
Yes you are punk
Yes you are crude
You’ll never have the same problems as I do
Rebel all you want
But I had to relearn my entire life
I need my own space
We need our own space
To be angry, truly angry
APATHETIC PSYCHOANALYST
Why do we have to understand the motives for the rapist?
Why is their mental health more important than the scars they leave us to die with.
Fuck.
It’s innate to know right from wrong
Sex is taught
Rape culture is learned
Survivors are silenced by sympathizers
I will never forget
I will never forgive
THESE MEN ARENT SORRY
Stop making excuses for child abusers
They are not ill X2
This abuse was not sickness
They were not victims themselves
Survivors would never pass their scars X2
Who’s the real victim here?
I’ve never felt justice
I’ve only felt forgotten
Who’s the real victim here?
I’ve never felt justice
I’ve only felt ashamed
When will the outrage begin?
It is not random
It is not a lack of self-control
IT is about control
Control to know that you are hurting a child and you still continue to abuse
…
It is not random
It is not a lack of self-control
IT is about control
Control to know that you are hurting a child but you still continue to abuse
…
Still continued to abuse me
WE ARE THE RESISTANCE
We are the resistance to the common mind
If we can’t fight together
There’s nothing to keep us growing
And if we prevent ourselves from growing how can we ever be wise?
Things need to change
People need to change
We need to change
How we think
How we listen
How we talk to one another
You don’t owe or own anyone
Their identity is not yours for the taking
I don’t owe you an explanation
I don’t owe you

If you weren’t planning to bring a life into existence
Or weren’t in the right mindset to do so
Why have you brought this burden upon everyone?
Bad parents will continue
The cycle that keeps these children
Vulnerable to all the people that are waiting to grab onto their innocence
Now you’ve given them
Do you know what happens?
To these children left out in the open
Because you don’t care
Why have you brought this burden upon everyone?
We all take care of her but you must trust her
She is not lying
Don’t give in to the kindness of strangers
DON’T GIVE IN TO THE KINDNESS OF STRANGERS
Don’t make the same mistake
The ones done to me
She has already been abused
How could you let this happen?
Now she will grow cold and hard
JUST LIKE ME

We are the ultimate stance
This world men have created
Will not last any longer
With their ruling
Their churches and nuclear families
That have brought us down since the dawn of time
We dare to dream
We dare to fight
For the impossible
Never settle for less
Total translation equals survival
Abandon all patriarchy
Outdated systems of oppression must fall
They call us naĂŻve but how else will things get done
Their churches and their nuclear families
They have brought us down since the dawn of time

They said you were bad for me
I know you hated me
I know you hated me
But still I caved in
I gave you my heart
And I don’t really understand why you girls hated me
We used to think that the world was against us
Now it’s only you against me
But now it’s only you against me
rant- This battle has raged for years//In darkness, alone in my bed I can’t stop thinking of where it all went wrong//I’m struggling everyday//This constant hate you have for me//Why do you hate me? //There’s nowhere to hide because you know everyone//you took them all away from me
When will the animosity end?
And to think I would dream of dancing with you one last time.
Is the war on woman now among us and not against us?
You’re a slut shamming feminist, check your inner misogyny.
