- Noisy B!tch
let’s get a couple things straight
I might as well go ahead and say it
and I ain’t asking if it’s okay
it’s a truth that just can’t wait
I’m sure some of y’all will relate
if you’re looking for my silence…
keep it moving
you won’t find it here
not from a mouth forced to remain mute
making excuses for every bruise…
and bearing the scars of others actions
holding it all in for the sake of appearance
covering it up…
because they don’t want to hear it
I’m not here by invitation
I’m making my own way in
no more quietly waiting
no…those days are long gone
well, maybe not so long
but definitely gone
I’m no longer hiding it all away
opening curtains to release the shame
closing the door on carrying their pain
I’d like to see them carry the weight
I’m claiming my bad bitch…as of today
I’m done masking my trauma
simply to make others more comfortable
tired of wearing a smile…
when I’m anything but fine
not even trying to stuff it all back inside
I played that role longer than is safe
it took too big a toll
broke me down further than before
and the energy required…
to rebuild and rewire…
I can’t even begin to describe…
it’s a monumental task
and nobody ever seems to ask
“are you okay?”
I’m a badass starting today
or maybe I’ve always been that way…
if you’re tired of hearing it…
try living it
so stay and listen…
or just walk away
honestly…it makes no difference
after all the years locked in a bottle…
I’m having my say
until I’ve had enough
