Good Quote by LaTanya McQueen

“You’re a good girl. You’re so good, you’ve let the desire to be it overtake you. It’s defined who you are. …. You’ve always believed being this way was going to somehow save your life, but it’s stolen it instead. Let me ask, what did being good ever do for you?” quote by LaTanya McQueen
