Sisters & Young Men.. Bitches & Boys

It's pretty well known that I'm a music junkie. Truth be told, I'm more lyrical than anything.. it's not necessarily the beat on a track but the message that's being sent through the airways. I was listening to a track called "Take ya Time" by Black Ice ft. Musiq and he basically states the difference between young men and boys. In comparison, Jay-Z has a track called Sisters and Bitches where he describes what seperates a sister (a female worthy of respect) from a bitch (a female who is often disrespected). I'm posting the lyrics to both.. food for thought, grab a plate.

Bitches and Sisters: Jay-Z
Sisters get respect, bitches get what they deserve
Sisters work hard, bitches work your nerves
Sisters hold you down, bitches hold you up
Sisters help you progress, bitches will slow you up
Sisters cook up a meal, play their role with the kids
Bitches in street with their nose in your biz
Sisters tell the truth, bitches tell lies
Sisters drive cars, bitches wanna ride
Sisters give-up the ass, bitches give-up the ass
Sisters do it slow, bitches do it fast
Sisters do their dirt outside of where they live
Bitches have niggers all up in your crib
Sisters tell you quick "you better check your homie"
Bitches don't give a fuck, they wanna check for your homie

Take ya Time: Black Ice ft. Musiq

Boys don't know how to crack

They try to holla out the window of they ride
Young men know how to act
They humbly pull you to the side
A young man is genuine, he don’t suck up to ya moms
But a boy will kiss her ass and try to fuck before the prom
A boy will play hustler cause he think he's hiding through it
A young man would keep it on the low and hate they gotta do it
A young man is in his dorm room with a big poster of Pac
A boy know his songs word for word but cant get off the block
A boy wanna hit it, young men wanna hit it
Young men wait patiently and boys rush to get it
After school, a boy rushes home to jump on Playstation
A young man will stay late and try to further education
A boy wont say nothing if his homies try and sound you
A young man will defend ya honor if his niggas ever clown you
A young man sees practicing and studies with his team
But a boy don’t see nothing but crack and triple beams


Some people have problems with labels, but are those same people the ones with labels that aren't so pleasing? Where do you fall in line? Take time to think about it.

If you aren't being called a title that is becoming of you, you might want to become something different.
