Now aint that something?
Our children's children already being born
Times have definitely changed
These children are accepted and adored because it's become the norm
But not to long ago I knew this little girl who was scorned
Treated like she's the devil's mistress,
walked the earth with a condemned unborn
Kicked out because her family believed she'll ruin shame their name
Forced to do it all by herself, because that Sperm Donor, That Pseudo-Father, that WHATEVER!!! was hooked on that corner planting his seed in another
Now where is the comfort? where is the support?
That becomes a cliche when she cries about her reality
That suppose to be till marriage
This little girl is forced into womanhood and has to shelve those ambitions of college
No time to listen to her so called family, who got nothing better to say
Only time to cry, weep, and take her frustrations out on new born at the end of the day
That time where she can only pray, hope that Mr. Right one day,
Can sweep her off her feet and take her away.
So I ask ? since then what Has Changed?
The spirit of that sixteen year old scorned with the new born is no longer
She takes times to listen to her 17 year old black sista.
Who boasts about the 2nd child due in the middle of October.
Young sista raps and spits about the new born with no bother.
Is not the start of a new life, an extension of the family tree?
I'm catholic so that's why I'm keeping it; besides my moms gonna take care of me
So the scorned steps and ask why'd she disrespect her
Why this little black girl disregard the torments and pains of being a single mother
She never even paid attention, she never paid mind
To the scorned sista life's book, not even a #%$ing Chapter.
So she pleads only in vain, because life's lesson taught
Came from trial and error, little girl have no idea how much the scorn fought.
In the end, the once scorned sista can only hope and pray
That other young black teenage sistas
Think twice about how fun it'll be to be a baby mama.
