Just Use A Condom


Ladies, do y'all not hear,
What's goin on in this world? Lemme make this clear.
About 300 THOUSAND women contracted AIDS in the year, 
2007 alone. Now that's a number everyone should fear.
Listen, I'm not the stereotype telling you to forever keep your legs shut. 
And I'm not in your ear preaching abstinence, but,
If you're going to have sex, be safe and PLEASE WRAP IT UP.
 
Just use a condom.

I'm not afraid to be myself. Always be incredibly outspoken.

<p>Short and sweet. It relays a powerul message in a few lines.</p>
