Not My Responsibility
Do you know meReally know meYou have opinionsAbout my opinions
About my musicAbout my clothesAbout my body
Some people hate what i wearSome people praise itSome people use it to shame othersSome people use it to shame meBut i feel you watchingAlways
And nothing i do goes unseenSo while i feel your staresYour disapproval or your sigh of reliefIf i lived by them i’d never be able to moveWould you like me to beSmaller weaker softer taller
Would you like me to be quietDo my shoulders provoke you does my chestAm i my stomach my hipsThe body i was born withIs it not what you wanted
If i wear what is comfortableI am not a womanIf i shed the layers i’m a slutThough you’ve never seen my bodyYou still judge itAnd judge me for itWhy
We make assumptions about peopleBased on their sizeWe decide who they areWe decide what they’re worthIf i wear more if i wear less
Who decides what that makes me what that meansIs my value based only on your perceptionOr is your opinion of me not my responsibility
Watch now
