Stop pretending that you’re deeper than you are
When your vocabulary’s bland and your vision
sub-par
Please believe that you will reap what you sow
When your children can’t read their
average below
Quit neglecting the ones you brought onto this Earth
It sure wasn’t my tax funds who
gave birth
How can you deny and take life for a joke
You think you’re a dime but you stay
on #teambroke
Steady in the hair shop and getting them nails did
But you don’t make the time and read to
Your kids
Knowing this about You should make You inflamed!
You’re too busy trickin’ to even
Be shamed
Your job is to teach them about their self-wealth
All you’ve been doing’s making them
Hate themselves
One day you’ll feel it, one day you’ll see
When the secret is out that your babes
Hate mommy…
