It's a weapon I was told I need to cover It's my body, My soul, And my laughter. How could you look at me —your daughter — And believe I'm trying to tempt my own brother ? She says my body Speaks too boldly That I have to soften my edges, Hide my hips, and round out my corners. Cutting down my legs To look like less, To not ****** Like you warned me, Back when I was smaller. But tell me, How could you protect your sons When you never learned How to have a daughter?

Daughter
It's a weapon I was told I need to cover It's my body, My soul, And my laughter. How could you look at me —your daughter — And believe I'm trying to tempt my own brother ? She says my body Speaks too boldly That I have to soften my edges, Hide my hips, and round out my corners. Cutting down my legs To look like less, To not ****** Like you warned me, Back when I was smaller. But tell me, How could you protect your sons When you never learned How to have a daughter?
