When they told me not to cry
They took away my freedom to express
When they told me I had to play outdoors
They took away my freedom to choose
When they told me to make alpha and beta my strengths
They took away my desire to develop
When they told me I had to go out and earn
They took away my desire to explore
When they told me I had to rein in my family
They took away my intent to care
When they told me she was meant to serve me
They took away my intent to love
When they told me I was the master of my house
They took away my right to err
When they told me I ought to 'be a man'
They took away my right to be....me.
