A Baby Having A Baby

by Melinda   Aug 15, 2004


Baby girl, you're so young with so much to live for
Yet the way you act people call you a wh*r3
Dressing in clothes so skimpy and tight
Going out with a different man every single night
Mama's working nights, ain't there to stop you
And daddy left before you turned two
Thought no one loved you, felt no one cared
Found out quickly when you flaunted your body, the men stared
At 12, lost your virginity in the backseat of a car
By 13, you're fooling around with men old enough to be at the bar
Ain't no need to sneak, no one's home at night
As long as he's gone by morning, it'll be alright
Don't know how many men there's been, lost track after thirty
The more time passes, the more you feel dirty
But don't know how to stop, it's the attention you crave
Don't even care if your actions put you in an early grave
So you drink and get high to numb out the pain
To stop your thoughts from making you insane
But now it's too late to go back and ask for help
Because you look in the mirror and don't even recognize yourself
Your face is getting chubbier and your belly begins to swell
You think somethings wrong, but you just can't tell
Mama looks at you one day with tear filled eyes
Touches your belly and gently sighs
Hands you a box and tells you to go take the test
When you're done, she looks at the stick, places a hand upon her chest
Tears stream down her tired looking face
She looks up at you and pulls you into an embrace
Softly whispers: How could it be?
My baby's having her own baby...
