Chameleon

Who’s to say which is right and which is wrong?
Where is the balance between being true, being yourself, being professional, and being smart?
How can I accomplish all?
Hood clothes? Preppy clothes? Professional clothes?
Nappy hair? Ghetto hair? Acceptable hair?
Should I be one person on the weekend, another during the week, and myself over breaks?
When do I say you all and when can I say ain’t?
Who decides what is proper, fitting, and right?
Do I have to choose between being called a hoe, rebellious, stuck up
Unprofessional, a slob, high maintenance, afro-centric, and white?
All I did was get up and get dressed this morning
And because of that, I am one thing today,
Something else tomorrow, and was something
Completely different yesterday.
Who are you to say some are wrong, some are right, and some are okay.
I see why God intended us to be naked!!!
