My Name

Mashallah, we are so alike
Pronouncing my name makes us shy
While I toughen up they seem to thrive
Made a list of men who made me cry
Made a list of men who had blue eyes

I'm not a girl, I'm just the Other
Foreign feature guesting hoe
Not yet a woman, I'm just a curly
Mane to pull, when they conquered her

Mashallah, mother worried more
About abuse daughters can't ignore
She was right, could never close my door
Still in need of white man affirmation still a whore

I'm not a girl, I'm just the Other
Foreign feature guesting hoe
Not yet a woman, I'm just a curly
Mane to pull, when they conquered her

So happy for, I cherish your
Welcoming gesture, thank you so
Salam aleikum, my name's what you want
I'm growing smaller, built that wall around me
So I won't oppose you
So I won't disclose you
So happy for, I cherish your welcoming gesture

I'm not a girl, I'm just the Other
Foreign feature guesting hoe
Not yet a woman, I'm just a curly
Mane to pull, when they conquered her
