Irresponsibility


There is a task that some people completely take for granted And if they didn’t want this blessing they shouldn’t have let the seed be planted Parenting a child is a task beyond any other It is something special to be called a father and a mother Pregnancy without preparation is already heading toward the ground And how much you wanna bet baby daddy won’t be around So baby mama is trying to handle things on her own But there’s only so much she can do, baby mama aint grown So she’s getting help from mama and grandma nim And their kinda distant cause they say they done raised they children So baby mama uses grandma nim as much as she can So she can act her age and chase after some stupid man Baby mama needs a clue She gotta baby, she cant do what she wanna do She has another life depending on her If she wasn’t ready she shouldn’t have let some things occur Cause what she has is precious and is to be cherished and cared for proper How you gonna be a good mom if you nothing but a bed hopper Maybe I sound hostile, but the topic grinds my gears Don’t be sexing out of both legs if you not ready to put in those years I hate when people take babies for granted like their not real humans Then consequently at a young age they have a lot to withstand Babies are real, not an accessory to show off, or a toy So if you not gonna take responsibility, next time, don’t lay up with that boy
