Too far inside my head

What the hell is the matter with people?? Jesus, yes. Ok. I get it. I'm not a 'real' Asian (whatever the fuck one of those is) and I'm not like you. But you know what? I have enough of my own shit on that topic to deal with without you making me feel bad about it.
You grew up in London - so what? You grew up in the community, in the samaj - so? What does that mean? You grew up around other coloureds? You grew up around other uptight racists? You grew up in a world where you knew the rules?
Well fuck you because I know the rules too.
I know how to live amongst other people; I'm open to other ideas. Yeah, it's true, I'm not so culturally active. Navratri and Diwali are about as far as I go. I like the films, I love the music and as far as the religious context goes, I'm pretty screwed. I don't talk the way you talk; I don't care about the things you care about but dammit! You do not have the right to tell me that I am WRONG because, fuck it, you know that I am equal to you. You know that.
So take your bullshit and shove it where it don't shine because whilst I'm confused on the issue of my ethnicity it has bugger all to do with you, you ass.
