I dont know..

I don't know how I feel about homosexuality
See I, never awarded myself the authority to posses an opinion on another's sexual compatibility
I never, took the time to define whats right or wrong with what one does with their personal time
I never, thought about drawing out the line that's ought place limits to abort another's comfort


Cause see, She is not me and He is not we so how can we tell she not to kiss she?
We does not see the world as do she, nor does we feel what she feels when she's with she
We do not understand, better yet, comprehend the intricacies that she oversees each time she makes that conscious decision to do she


It takes courage to stand up, despite societies blaring chin up, and brace the silly face that refuses to embrace


See I've never played a part in this homosexuality right or wrong debate
Seems to me it mirrors close to deciding on an interracial couple's fate
Baseless and Ignorant, careless and arrogant


I personally wouldn't give a shit on who someone reckoned should be my mate
My date to the socially-appropriate ball, 
where we wear dead cats as fur in the fall.


Social standards were built on a miserable bias
the same standards that tells little girls to wear pink and like flowers
the same, standards that tells young men to only pull out chairs and open doors for their mothers and virgins. 
Only the sinless shall fall? Seems the sinful make the call. 


So, I dont know how I feel about homosexuality
But I do know I wont play a part in suppressing anyone's identity 
If anything, let them scorn us for falling for frogs and sidelining our prince

They're not there anyway, when our tears we rinse.

Learns To Ride

My sister learned to ride a bike today

She throw caution to the wide and..

Let the balance of life lead the way.


 
She peddled and meddled and..

Let her fears astray.




My sister learned to ride a bike today,

Reminds me, to learn something new each day.
