You cant take my baby

by Hannah   Dec 12, 2005


Sixteen and homeless,
a baby on the way.
i wanted to go to college,
sometime in may.

now its all over,
no one is there
this baby is all i have,
life just isn't fair.

there guna take my baby,
when it has arrived.
but i shall run away,
run away and hide.

they cant take my baby,
the baby is part of me.
what will it take,
Ive got to make them see.

ill run to the hills,
ill run down south.
just me and my baby
and i pretty little house.

i can kick the habit,
the drugs haven't got me.
i can give up when i want to
whenever that may be?

cocaine, grass and skunk,
its just a bit of fun
they baby doesn't get hurt
thats why i must run.

ill sort my life out,
i wont cut myself again.
ill let the wounds heal up,
i wont get used by men.

they use me for sex,
pay me less than I'm worth.
my pimp takes my wages,
my whole life's a curse.

but the baby will change it,
every things guna be OK.
i ain't letting men use me,
ain't happnin, no way!

i told myself this,
over and over again.
promised id fix the habit,
and never get used by men.

but i couldnt take it anymore,
and you cant make me.
so i killed myself that day,
killing me, as well as my baby.
