Think Of Me Softly

[seeyat]

Raised to be something a bit different it seems
Something that isn't quite right
Raised on discouragement but held up by dreams
No matter the day or the night
She raised me to love and to cherish the world
A hippie you'd say in some ways
He raised me to chuckle and talk down to girls
Not sure where it came from but stayed
The truth sometimes hurts and the fault isn't his
He was raised in a near ancient time
And it's actually made me better for this
For I'd rather have lyrics and rhymes
I picked apart flaws and then set down some laws
I made up a bit of a pact
I kept myself humble and knew what I saw
So I'd know how I never should act
unfortunate now in my age as a man
It's so hard to convince I'd digress
To look at me seeing things dressed how I can
I would rather have tea than have sex
