Unhappy Your child

Your child

Black men , this message is for you!
Do you not see the pain you put us through?!
Make “love” to a woman & create a baby
come out and say “it ain’t me,”& call her a ho,
Giving the innocent life pain it should never know


Your child goes through life feeling rejection
When all they want from you is love and attention
You have the balls to call yourself a father
Mama is so pissed off, she asks “why should you even bother?”


It’s hard for her to raise a child alone
No help from you while she struggles to keep her home
Should never want for nothing ,you should provide for every need
This precious child is half yours ,that’s your seed!

Aggreement here

Bless Up;

I agree with Jalili for sure ...

But somehow, as urgent, deep felt, problematic this issue has been for quite some time ... I'm always left with the feeling that there is something more ... A lot more ... Is it always as simple as a "Bredrin" not living up to his duties? Ofcourse it's not. If the essence of a tree is the root, then it's that root that must be approached, on this subject and others. That way we can overstand the branches and leaves a likkle betta still.

A likkle like it's right !

Raw : Most of your heart wives and husbands are in Africa or in Europe.

Decent : You should focus on what you truely carry in your mind and heart, your necessities.

Soft : Go where you're led to, you'll never be lost out of your arrival...

My kindred sista, you always come with it in your prose, and poetry.

I dig this so, and I wish it went on even longer... to the exhaustion of your emotion on the issue. It needs that for real, yahmean?

Imma seek more of you in these parts. Lift me up.

One Love Peace.
