YOU WANT RESPECT?!

Teach your sons to respect women & daughters to respect themselves    
Don’t know if she’s 18 or 12
Don’t know if she’s pregnant or swelled  
Don’t know how a baby is held  
Don’t know if she might be expelled  
Now she’s going through hell  
because he…
Forgot where he came from
He beat your face like snare drum  
Drank a bottle like a baby
But the T.K.O was on his lady  
Claimed he was a gentlemen oh, how his knuckles tore  
Shame she was a soldier oh, how she faced the war  
No mute for the chil-dren  
Mommy screams like a si-ren  
Daddy colors blue & purple on her yellow face
No one helps or gets involved they claim it’s not their place  
It’s like….  
they forgot where they came from  
Single mother with no father to raise em  
Strong women we should praise em.
