Censor




When you’re saying something people do not want to hear,
they try to knock your confidence, controlling you with fear.
Because we are not robots, and we care what people think,
we let them into our heads, and that makes our spirit sink.
It doesn’t take an awful lot to drive these people mad,
they just want to put you down, until you’re feeling bad.
Words they’re not expecting stir them up into a rage,
they try to censor all your thoughts that you put on the page.

No-one has the right to interrupt you while you speak,
or try to knock you off your perch, when you have reached your peak.
It happened to me once when I had mentioned sexual words,
they got in a fluster and behaved like little terds.
‘Oh Jesus’ they said loudly, I heard them from the stage,
yes it knocked my confidence, and put me in a rage.
I didn’t feel that anyone would want to hear my rhyme,
but that should not have mattered, it will be the final time.

I will not let anybody make me feel ashamed,
of who I am and what I think, like I should have abstained.
I don’t expect that everybody has an open mind,
but if they don’t agree, they do not have to be unkind.
They have the choice to walk away, instead they choose to stay,
and try to bitch in front of me, and get right in my way.
Words like sperm and masturbation, they are nothing new,
and neither should describing sex, put you in a stew.
I know you are embarrassed, but someone has to write it,
at least I have the guts to say it, why d’you have to fight it?
