What If
LIFE
what if
it wasn’t meant to be like this
LIFE
can we receive the blessing or continue in mischief
LIFE
mischief that leads to destruction
i kissed sally under the table in class
sally said it was ok so i grabbed her asssssss
I’m only 10 years old
My daddy just laughed
Now I’m 35 and lust is all I attract
Is this love
is this life
Replicate my time
mischief brought me down a path
Celebrated indeed
But I don’t feel for me
I been kissing and grabbing Sally’s since before 13
I am now a child of God
And the Sally’s keep trynna pass me the baton
And I know just what needs to be done
This is my life I’ve been the one
It’s chasing me and there’s no escape you see
Just caught up in beauty and curves
They open their legs and in I go
As a child it was celebrated
As a man it makes me feel devastated
Lisa has a baby girl on the way
She’s my blessing and her mistake
Now I gotta try to find a way so my baby don’t end being another boys sally
I live in Miami maybe I’ll move to Tally
Move with the tall trees
No words about the birds and the bees
Raise her as a little boy so one day she’ll be a queen
Better than me but her mother
Her mother was just another Sally
Saying what she needed to hook me
I’m a successful man been had the bands
Sally liked me because my daddy owned farm lands
And in my hands
I brought food
Eggs and limes
My class was blessed
It was divine
Sally knew exchange
Sally knew the game
I guess it wasn’t only us for a change
Now Lisa she was indoctrinated the same
A man with some change
Forget the brain
Beauty is all needs to be obtained
My baby will be beautiful
But I gotta go away
I can’t raise her in this thang
LIFE
When we recognize the crack in our life, we change
We are put back together but those cracks and missing pieces they’re real
We try our best to avoid those cracks to extend to the next person
The brokenness was real but the super glue was real too
Having a family gives you purpose
You taste the bread with olive oil and the salt
Grandmas touch
Just came to my palette tears down my cheek
Nonetheless I don’t blame anyone just introspection
How did we land here
