I'm a mother now
Don't know what to do
never changed a diper before
never held one them too
never knew much about love
never knew much about caring for another
But I'm a mother now
I get up late at night
I hold them while they cry
I feed and Chang them all day long
they smell of baby lotion
They smell of baby food
they smell of the earth and new moon
I'm a mother now and it's scaring the hell out of me
I'm only 17
I'm a Junior in school
I'm just a lonely teen
My life use to be all about me
My life use to be a way to get out of the pain
But all that had changed
because I'm a mother now
little do my babies know
I cry late at night
I beg god for the answer to make this all right
i beg my mother to help me and hold my hand
little do my girls know
I am turned away by my friend
I am kicked out by my family
God has for skein me asked me to figure it out on my own
I love my girls more then i can take
I love my girls with all my heart
they are my world and my life
because i am their mom
