Who I Am !
(An Excellent poem about the Muslim Woman)
What do you see
when you look at me
Do you see someone limited,
or someone free
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
All some people can do is just look and stare
Simply because they can't see my hair
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
Others think I am controlled and uneducated
They think that I am limited and un-liberated
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
They are so thankful that they are not me
Because they would like to remain 'free'
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
Well free isn't exactly the word I would've used
Describing women who are cheated on and abused
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
They think that I do not have opinions or voice
They think that being hooded isn't my choice
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
They think that the hood makes me look caged
That my husband or dad are totally outraged
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
All they can do is look at me in fear
And in my eye there is a tear
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
Not because I have been stared at or made fun of
But because people are ignoring the one up above
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
On the day of judgment they will be the fools
Because they were too ashamed to play by their own rules
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
Maybe the guys won't think I am a cutie
But at least I am filled with more inner beauty
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
See I have declined from being a guy's toy
Because I won't let myself be controlled by a boy
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
Real men are able to appreciate my mind
And aren't busy looking at my behind
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
Hooded girls are the ones really helping the muslim cause
The role that we play definitely deserves applause
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
I will be recognized because I am smart and bright
And because some people are inspired by my sight
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
The smart ones are attracted by my tranquility
In the back of their mind they wish they were me
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
We have the strength to do what we think is right
Even if it means putting up a life long fight
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
You see we are not controlled by a mini skirt and tight shirt
We are given only respect, and never treated like dirt
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
So you see, we are the ones that are free and liberated
We are not the ones that are sexually terrorized and violated
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
We are the ones that are free and pure
We're free of STD's that have no cure
<=><=><=><=><=><=><=><=>
So when people ask you how you feel about the hood
Just sum it up by saying 'baby its all good'
