 A New Woman

There's a hell of a lot more to me 
You hear epilepsy 
You label disability 
Assumptions are made constantly 
When I am good enough and understand completely 
Acute depression never hit the brain fog fully 
It works and I can be the best wifey 
I can be the best mummy 
Only 
You don't believe in me 
If I kept it a secret  its not me that I am supposed to be 
In some cases, I'm older and the same cultures sneer 
Is it ignorance or is it fear 
Different cultures need an approval from family 
I'd rather be single and happy 
Than cry over a wasted dream 
Yahabibi you say I'm not halal or serious that I make ya wanna scream 
Ignorance and control won't get you in line with the seam
ITs ok to  be single and be happy 
It's not ok to live up to other people's expectations instead of what your eyes wanna see 
I'm single but i never even crossed your mind
passportless frauds and bankless freaks for me on the rind
Why do i always need to remind 
I am human and deserve the best like any other kind
