Battle me.
Cause my mouth is free, my flow comes out effortlessly
On the ideas you see cause your wrong and im always right so im calling you out
To battle with poetry cause maybe youll listen this time
To the ones who says teen pregnacy is a mistake is mistaken
Cause my mamas baby sing better than clay aiken
Hang tight with missed statements
And beam bright without breaking
Her baby will hold hands with best
But never step over the rest
Her baby gone have the backbone of hero shrew
Never in the spot to lose hanging on like mothers do
She got her babies back too
To the ones who so ignorantly says teen pregnacy is a mistake
Is mistaken
Cause my mama gave us an education
Helped with homework even when frustrated
And worked nights so her kids day was filled with her.
She was a teen parent
Nights long like rich grocery lists
Days short like weekends
My mama made time
She shined so bright her rays burnt us
The queen of the circus juggling reality on her shoulder blades it was magical
So to the ones who say teen pregnancy is a mistake is mistaken
Cause not only did my mama raise us
She bathed us
She fed and changed us
She loved us
She was us
And she did it with no hesitation
No communication just instinct insisting she raise her kids
As she raise herself as she grow up and blow up
Her kids watch her mold up to the woman today
She was a teen parent
But you would only know by the face
Cause her mindset is three times her age
But people only look for the mistakes that their mistaken on
Cause she made none
So whoever said teen pregnancy is a mistaken
Is mistaken
And my mama would love to argue on that missed statement.
