Bitch
by Dark Angel

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call me a BITCH.
When I stand up for those I love, they call me a BITCH.
When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts or do things my own way, they
call me a BITCH.

Being a BITCH means I won't compromise what's in my heart.
It means I live my life MY way. It means I won't allow anyone to step on
me. When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak against it, I am defined
as a BITCH. The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of
being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish.

It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly
am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be. I
am outspoken, opinionated and determined.

I want what I want and there is nothing wrong with that! So try to stomp
on me, try to douse my inner flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I
hold within me. You won't succeed. And if that makes me a BITCH, so be it.
I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.

B - Babe
I - In
T - Total
C - Control of
H - Herself

Call me a Bitch cause I speak what's on my mind, guess it's easier for you
to swallow if I sat and smiled

----------

I prefer . . .

B - Boys,
I - I'm
T - Taking
C - Charge
H - Here

I had a coffee mug made up special (with my preferred B-I-T-C-H slogan)
for my sister when "the boys" in her office were hastling her over some
petty thing.
