Choose to wait

I loved him..so we didn't use protection.
Then the next month, I found out that I was pregnant.
Out of wedlock, and without a man.
I went into the fire..right out the frying pan.

How do I tell my parents? How do I tell my friends?
And why did our relationship end??
Always afraid to take responsiblity for their actions;
Nothing's picture perfect when you read the captions.

Leaving documentation of their mistakes called birth certificates.
Forgetting their manners and their ettiqitte.
Only holding open doors til something else opens up.
Should have kept him on lock cause that's wassup.

Never thinking ahead; just a moment's satisfaction.
And now I get to be the main attraction.
Lugging around all this extra weight
Because I thought sex couldn't wait.

Getting love mixed up with infatuation
Cause I told my intuition to take a vacation.
Let my emotions control me.
Put on blinders so I couldn't see.

Letting a man dictate me,
But now I can appreciate how it feels to be free.
Your life can be changed in moment;an instance.
So I have one thing to recommend;

Think before you act, not after cause it's always too late.
Know that you're worth it; sex can wait.
