Hypocrisy
And lamented me for straightening my hair;
You rattled off history lesson
after history lesson
after history lesson
On oppression and assimilation.
Then you died your hair blonde...
You looked me in the eye,
Complained of my attire--
You asserted that I have conformed
into society's definition of beauty
into society's standard of femininity
And I should rebel against sexism.
But your face is overdone in makeup...
You looked me in the eye,
Told me I was heathen,
Because I don't frequent a church
because I ask "the wrong" questions
because I said the preacher was wrong
And I actually know how history and the Bible relate.
Then you up in the club drunk and twerking...
I look you in the eye,
And say nothing,
Because I don't want to be hypocrite.
But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.Matthew 5:39 KJV
