Boys frustrate me
And by boys, of course I don't mean the gentlemen
By boys, I mean boys who use their gender as an advantage over girls and women

I do not mean the sweethearts who care
I do not mean the gentlemen who think before they speak and before they act
And I do not mean the boys who treat others the way they want to be treated

I mean the hypocrites
The heartbreakers
The uncontrolled
The uncontrollable
And the relentless
