My s#!t hard and my d!@k soft

I'm stressed out and pissed off,
My s#!t hard and my d!@k soft,
Pulled over by a white cop,
Passengers wife and daughter's respect lost,
When he called me boy I could have paid the cost,
Instead I yes sir and paid the ticket cost,
Now when I try at home to command,
Keisha and Zoe think why you ain't pop off like that to the man?
So eyes and necks roll - Double standard, 
Had I talked back they'd be stranded,
Widow/single mom/daddy issues/headstrong,
So I lost lost the battle, still fighting to win the war...
