Aimless in the streets
all in my head
Didn’t take things seriously
spirit was dead
I used my body
not as a living sacrifice
More of an uneven exchange
just to be liked
But that didn’t work
often tossed aside
By dudes who just wanted to play
turns out my flesh lied
Til one day my choices
caught up to me
Inside was this new being
9 months flew by so suddenly
The me turned to We
the “girl” is now a Mommy
Struggles and lost, how do I care for him
his eyes look up at me, so innocent
He can’t see my faults
or know that I ain’t perfect
His smile, my tears
but he’s all worth it
Don’t give up single mother
times get hard, I know
You’re still standing
those thoughts, that guilt, let it all go
Because life’s not over,
it’s an ongoing race
Dry, those eyes get back up
no time to waste
Forgive, hold your head up high
put on those kicks, walk tall in those heels
Too many things to do
can’t be stuck on how you feel
Plans written, feel His sweet embrace
arms wide open
He’s the God who sees you
His love cant ever be erased
