&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The essence of being a woman&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; Is far beyond just the anatomy seen past just the biology of her parts&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is the warmth of her touch&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When the world seems so cold It is the strength of her shoulder she gives when her mates chip on his is to hard to take&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A listening ear&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A consoling spirit&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A forgiving nature&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Something often taken for granted&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So many have used her for lusting pleasures&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; And she has accepted&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So many try to place her behind them instead of making her an equal&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There have been some that think her intelligence should be replaced and dumed down to feed their insecurity&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And to be a duplicity of a lady and a slave to a bed at nightfall&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When beauty so un measured should be cherished&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And unfortunately she is forgotten&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Placed in basements&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In hidden places Left out and pushed aside&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And soon the very essence of being a woman is no longer remembered&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;She has lost her glimmer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lost her self&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And this is repeated&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And reciprocated through her sons eyes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He sees only a shell of a woman&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He places this upon each counterpart that he encounters&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Who will shelter him from this suffering&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The suffering of manhood:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What does it mean to be a man&lt;br/&gt; Physiology, masculinity, or is it just identity&lt;br/&gt; A man is an idea of society&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A man is a beast of rough skin&lt;br/&gt; Cold skin, cold of blood, cold hearted&lt;br/&gt; A man is a strong creature, bears his pain on his own for a man to ask for help is weakness&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A man is deaf&lt;br/&gt; A rigid, cold soul&lt;br/&gt; Ruthless prideful&lt;br/&gt; A man is not a human in any way&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Men are people stripped of their right to feel&lt;br/&gt; Beaten until we accept pain&lt;br/&gt; Why?&lt;br/&gt; Because, he has been taught to be this way&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The person he was is broken and destroyed&lt;br/&gt; Discarded and incinerated&lt;br/&gt; Scattered the ashes&lt;br/&gt; Watch as they fly away in the wind&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Eventually we forget that men were once human&lt;br/&gt; He’s a man now, he can’t break&lt;br/&gt; If a man ever falls&lt;br/&gt; And&lt;br/&gt; He continues to do so&lt;br/&gt; He will break and crumble&lt;br/&gt; While in the eyes of a woman&lt;br/&gt; Will be a creature that is no longer human&lt;br/&gt; Not the “man” she wanted&lt;br/&gt; But a human, a guy innocent and broken trying to be what she wanted&lt;br/&gt; And that my friend is the essence of manhood&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Monkey King descends upon his throne&lt;br/&gt;Amongst the other primates, his own&lt;br/&gt;The dangerous dog eat dog jungle, his home&lt;br/&gt;Proud Monkey King he didn’t have a thing&lt;br/&gt;Yet he still had the pride to call himself king&lt;br/&gt;The monkeys were seen as lowly creatures&lt;br/&gt;Shunned by the gods for thier moronic features&lt;br/&gt;Gorrillas, apes, chimpanzees, orangatangs, lemurs&lt;br/&gt;They laughed at the Monkey King’s domain&lt;br/&gt;There was shame attached to the monkey’s name&lt;br/&gt;It was the Monkey King left to take the blame&lt;br/&gt;They laughed at him, they shunned him&lt;br/&gt;They mocked him, they ridiculed him&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Monkey King went into solitude, he trained&lt;br/&gt;Day after day enduring all types of pain, the strain&lt;br/&gt;When the Monkey King emerged he wasn’t the same&lt;br/&gt;He knew magic, he had power, he was mighty&lt;br/&gt;He contested against all the gods, he was godly&lt;br/&gt;All of the gods still ridiculed him and the monkeys&lt;br/&gt;He had to prove himself, make them know he’s worthy&lt;br/&gt;He then challenged the god of all gods&lt;br/&gt;He used all types of powers, clones and mirages&lt;br/&gt;He couldn’t out god the god of all gods&lt;br/&gt;Despite all of his power he recieved no respect&lt;br/&gt;He asked the god of all gods “why I’m nearly perfect”&lt;br/&gt;His only response was “silly monkey your only a monkey”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He pondered upon this for a long time, it poisoned his mind&lt;br/&gt;“Only a monkey”? What does it mean was it just to be funny &lt;br/&gt;“Only a monkey”? No way, thats not fair it couldn’t be&lt;br/&gt;“Only a monkey”? I was born a monkey is it wrong to be me&lt;br/&gt;I am the Monkey King! I have bested the gods themselves&lt;br/&gt;Even the king of hell yet I’m cursed to a monkey’s shell&lt;br/&gt;Is this flesh a cell, just a prison in which I have to dwell&lt;br/&gt;No, it can’t be I was born this way, was I born to suffer&lt;br/&gt;“Only a monkey” “Only a monkey” “Only a monkey”&lt;br/&gt;No! I am a monkey, why can’t a monkey have power&lt;br/&gt;Come with me monkeys, the heavens will be ours!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I bested the gods one by one, until there was only one&lt;br/&gt;The god of all gods, he looked at me and said ”why son”&lt;br/&gt;Why does it matter I’m “Only a monkey’, I get it now its funny”&lt;br/&gt;He looked at me in disgust “silly Monkey Man” he waved his hand&lt;br/&gt;My entire army vanished, I lost all power that I once commanded&lt;br/&gt;He took everything I had, I was bent to my knees I couldn’t stand&lt;br/&gt;He looked at me and grinned “Silly Monkey Man you still don’t understand”&lt;br/&gt;I cried and said “Why, can’t I be treated equally, like every other man”&lt;br/&gt;As he sealed me underneath a mountain I heard him say&lt;br/&gt;“Because you’re not a man your only a monkey”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’m such a miserable miser&lt;br/&gt;Because I’m considerably tired&lt;br/&gt;Of having to satisfy her desire&lt;br/&gt;As if I was just wood for her fire&lt;br/&gt;Why can’t she ever be content&lt;br/&gt;All she ever does is circumvent&lt;br/&gt;I pity whoever listens to her vent&lt;br/&gt;I wonder who that is, its me&lt;br/&gt;I forgot what it is to be free&lt;br/&gt;I look at lady liberty&lt;br/&gt;And shout, liberate me&lt;br/&gt;From this woman’s tyranny&lt;br/&gt;Her whimper is uncanny&lt;br/&gt; She speaks without amnesty&lt;br/&gt;As if I called her your majesty&lt;br/&gt;She yanks my collar constantly&lt;br/&gt;She pulls my leash angrily&lt;br/&gt;Unleash me, from this misery&lt;br/&gt;Release me, this is slavery&lt;br/&gt;I hear her in my dreams so vividly&lt;br/&gt;Nagging so angrily&lt;br/&gt;My ears bleed painfully&lt;br/&gt;Someone end her ministry&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You should always account for variable change&lt;br/&gt;Numbers, odds, chance, never stay the same&lt;br/&gt;Is it luck or probability, is it strategy or calculation&lt;br/&gt;Addition, subtraction, division, multiplication&lt;br/&gt;These numerical devices are the four pillars of life&lt;br/&gt;Seven days a week, the sixth day is Friday &lt;br/&gt;7 + 6 = 13, therefore you get Friday the 13th&lt;br/&gt;It’s all logic, it’s a part of time you can’t stop it&lt;br/&gt;Seconds, turn to minutes, minutes turn to hours&lt;br/&gt;Days become weeks, weeks become months&lt;br/&gt;The numbers change, numbers are strange&lt;br/&gt;Numbers define people, they say we’re all equal&lt;br/&gt;Yet statistics say us people aren’t equal&lt;br/&gt;Statistics aren’t evil but those statistics have power&lt;br/&gt;I’ll let you decide, is that power ours&lt;br/&gt;Mathematics is life so double check your answers &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What a tangled web we weaved&lt;br/&gt;When we tried to believe&lt;br/&gt;Was it love or were we deceived&lt;br/&gt;When was this lie conceived&lt;br/&gt;Why, did I say I loved you&lt;br/&gt;What did I do, did I think it through&lt;br/&gt;I didn’t even know who you were&lt;br/&gt;Were we ever even lovers&lt;br/&gt;Now I’m wondering “did I love her”&lt;br/&gt;Did I really or why didn’t I&lt;br/&gt;I said I did, why did I lie&lt;br/&gt;Why did I cry, I want to know why&lt;br/&gt;Did I live a lie or did I love the lie&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Why did I say I loved you&lt;br/&gt;I still don’t know why&lt;br/&gt;Maybe I did love you&lt;br/&gt;Or maybe I lived a lie&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Monkey King says we should live as monkeys&lt;br/&gt;Even though monkeys are hated by society&lt;br/&gt;Monkeys are hated, this is social slavery&lt;br/&gt;Us monkeys are imprisoned in the zoo&lt;br/&gt;Taken from the jungle of bountiful fruit&lt;br/&gt;They watch us in these steal cages&lt;br/&gt;They watch us as if this was a stage&lt;br/&gt;They watch us from birth to old age&lt;br/&gt;They snicker, they stare, they laugh, they glare&lt;br/&gt;Those hairless monkeys discriminate&lt;br/&gt;And incarcerate their fellow primates&lt;br/&gt;Why won’t these bars break, I have to escape&lt;br/&gt;This is a mistake, I refuse to accept this fate&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I learned the ways of the hairless monkey, they are ugly&lt;br/&gt;Very ugly but smart, they even watch us in the dark&lt;br/&gt;Through their mechanical eye, electronic moving boxes&lt;br/&gt;They are also deadly, their sticks shoot deadly toxins&lt;br/&gt;Their tools are elegant but their confident and arrogant&lt;br/&gt;They doubt our intelligence, their weakness is ignorance&lt;br/&gt;If all us monkeys group together freedom can be ours&lt;br/&gt;They will never again underestimate a primate’s prowess&lt;br/&gt;I gathered the apes, the chimps, the lemurs, orangutangs&lt;br/&gt;All of my fellow monkeys, bear your fangs&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We weren’t stopped by the hairless monkey but by our own King&lt;br/&gt;“Your majesty, what is this travesty? Freedom can finally be a reality”&lt;br/&gt;“Poor little monkey man why do you rebel? Our reality is this cell”&lt;br/&gt;“Blasphemy, this cell is hell! Us monkeys have a chance to prevail”&lt;br/&gt;“Son please do not rebel, I have walked this trail, your destined to fail”&lt;br/&gt;“You want me to accept this wretchedness, this evident prejudice”&lt;br/&gt;“Monkey Man, you must understand you are merely a monkey”&lt;br/&gt;“My whole life I’ve heard the hairless monkey say I am merely a monkey&lt;br/&gt;They themselves a merely monkeys I refuse this reality&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We ravaged with rage, with the wisdom of a sage&lt;br/&gt;A man yelled “Monkeys behave”, I sent him to his grave&lt;br/&gt;They treated us like animals we became the animals&lt;br/&gt;Mammals eating mammals, we became cannibals&lt;br/&gt;Sweet hairless monkey blood, sweet red flood&lt;br/&gt;The hairless monkey didn’t know how to react&lt;br/&gt;They never even considered we monkeys could fight back&lt;br/&gt;Battle after battle, the hairless monkey was in shambles&lt;br/&gt;We harnessed their tools, they took us for fools&lt;br/&gt;We fought, we won, they fought, they lost&lt;br/&gt;We rewrote the laws wrote them with monkey paws&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bombs and bullets, dead monkey bodies&lt;br/&gt;We were taking casualties, where was the humanity&lt;br/&gt;They killed the apes, they killed the chimps&lt;br/&gt;They killed the lemurs, they killed the gorillas&lt;br/&gt;They killed the orangutangs, they killed the baboons&lt;br/&gt;They killed us all, I was now about to meet my doom&lt;br/&gt;It was an execution, this marked the end of my revolution&lt;br/&gt;Was there ever a solution or was I a victim of evolution&lt;br/&gt;I heard the firing squad fire… My muscles began to tire&lt;br/&gt;I couldn’t move, “aim, fire” my blood was burning with desire&lt;br/&gt;Why sire? I died… Why sire! I tried… Why sire, I cried&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Even in death there was an iron barred cell, this was hell&lt;br/&gt;On the other side of my cage I saw a wise sage&lt;br/&gt;With him I saw the Monkey King, I was filled with rage&lt;br/&gt;Sire! Why didn’t you help us, we needed you&lt;br/&gt;All we needed to win was for you to come through&lt;br/&gt;But what did you do!? You did nothing&lt;br/&gt;You don’t even deserve to be called our king&lt;br/&gt;The King said “I was once like you little Monkey Man”&lt;br/&gt;The sage spoke “I had to make you understand”&lt;br/&gt;I yelled “I don’t understand, I was in command, I made a stand”&lt;br/&gt;They both said “silly monkey man you still don’t understand”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I flew with waxed wings&lt;br/&gt;My wings were singed&lt;br/&gt;I know why the caged bird sings&lt;br/&gt;Because clipped wings still sting&lt;br/&gt;A bird that can’t fly, is just a bird living a lie&lt;br/&gt;Living to get by, being laughed at by the sky&lt;br/&gt;As I remember when I flew so high, I cry&lt;br/&gt;I was so close to stars, now their so far&lt;br/&gt;I fell but there is no physical scar&lt;br/&gt;But my mind now has iron bars&lt;br/&gt;In a prison of my own, the land is now my home&lt;br/&gt;I can never soar the skies again&lt;br/&gt;The need to fly must be held in&lt;br/&gt;I flew and fell, descent to hell&lt;br/&gt;I know I can fly again, I don’t want to fall again&lt;br/&gt;So I’ll trade these wings for fangs&lt;br/&gt;Clip birds of their wings, save them from the pain&lt;br/&gt;Because when you fall it’ll never be the same&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let me die alone in the darkness&lt;br/&gt;As you shine in the light of the sunshine&lt;br/&gt;I want the sun but it will never be mine&lt;br/&gt;I want to grow but instead I just hide&lt;br/&gt;I want to be free yet I’m the one restraining me&lt;br/&gt;I want to be seen, I want to be in the scene&lt;br/&gt;I want to be the one to step out of line&lt;br/&gt;Then I find myself being the outer line&lt;br/&gt;I’m confined, defined by the guidelines&lt;br/&gt;I shy from the sun’s eyes, I am a grapevine&lt;br/&gt;Growing in the shadows, craving the light&lt;br/&gt;I shall become dry and die, in death may I shine&lt;/p&gt;
