I hate This No Parent Thang
Yo, I hate this no parent thang
Wanting that mom who aint even there for me
I don’t even know who to really be
Or what type of blood is running through me
I’ve built up so much of this pain
I try and move on and it always ends up the same
You know everybody aint the same
People look at me and think of this perfect frame
People tell me I got a lot going for me
I ain’t never feel no such thang
You know I graduated highschool
You never bothered to show up to
You know I walked that stage looking all around for you
Nowhere to be seen nowhere to be heard
I walked that stage feeling deeply hurt
I made the Dean’s list first semester
Going for social work I feel a little better
Yo, I hate this no parent thang
Knowing I am parentless, I feel so ashamed
Why dont they want me
Am I to blame
Why don’t they care
Is this supposed to be a war game
God please hear my prayer
I want a mother I call on and she actually be there
Or even a father who shows up anywhere and acts like he cares
People wonder, They wonder how
How am I still lonely with everyone I know now
Life is difficult I hope it aint for you
Though some days I don’t even know what to do
Maybe because you never was there
Never there to see me breath this air
Maybe because you never even cared
But you ain’t hurting I swear
You put me through so much
This life just aint fair
You know im your kid right
You know I need a parent in my life
No matter what you put me through
My kids gonna have a father who is there
My kids gonna have a mother who cares
That’s my goal in life
And watch me get there
