ANSWR ME THIS


How can you give birth,

How can you walk away ,

From what you created,

How can you do that , 

To a child you pushed out ,

That child didn’t asked you to open your legs , 

That child didn’t asked you to believe that man lies ,

That child didn’t begged you to keep him / her , 

That child didn’t do nothing to you ,

How can you not want to go to war , 

How can you give up ,

How can you call Dyfts on your child mother / father , 

Hoe can you bland the children,

When you not setting a better example, 

How can a child know better if they wasn’t taught better , 

How can children be better if it’s nothing positive showing them the right way , 

How can the world label our children, 

How can we allowed the world to diccctake our children into begin gay , 

How can we allow our children to watch the things they watch , 

How can we blame everybody but ourselves ,

How come it’s never our own fault for half of the shit our children see & hear ,

We as women allowed toxic relationships around our children,

Then wonder why they so dysfunctional & misbehaving,

Women wonder why their sons beat women ,

The answer is because you allowed a nan to do that to you , 

And that’s all he know ,

Take responsibility for your actions, 

Men always asked why their son don’t talk to them , 

Men always asked why their sons hate them is because you not there for them ,

Men you not there for your daughters / sons they children need y’all too , 

I’m tried seeing one without the other , 

Y’all did team work to make the baby , 

Now step up do team work & raise them children to the best of y’all ability ,

Don’t let nobody interfere with your children, 

Don’t let nobody in your business about the mother of your child / father of your child , 

Whatever y’all go through stay between the two of you , 

Why is it so hard for black Africa American to come together for anything ,

Like we the only Race that come together to do nothing for one another, 

Only thing we come together for is death & downing each other , 

Nothing positive,

Asked me this 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️
