See you sent your representative
and I'm Not interested in him
Battle of the sexes your rhetoric offends
Rewinding and rewinding their plays like NFL film
competitions for commitment I condemn
When did it all get so clinical
black and white
when did we all get a mic
to fight about what’s right
can we silence the egos
enough hear one another
to build something
not mention who belongs in the kitchen
and just listen
not demanding submission
and rocks that glisten
And Just listen
what’s for you isn’t for me
And spoonfuls of salt isn’t meant to eat
I’m not indulging or picking a side
I’m just saying what’s for my eyes is my prize
No one’s convictions can make me pick one
I’m my own spokesperson
While y’all busy dividing the pot and setting alpha positions the other side is clapping for the revisions and constant indecision
drafts after drafts after drafts
and the power in the family unit is what’s missing
I’m no hotep but whose getting the last laugh while your on your thesis pontificating
Their dissertation completed and they graduated
amalgamation fortifying the formation should be the keynote
Not who to demote and to hex in the battle of the sex …… what’s next
