A Fathers Response

Listen here miss lady to what I have to say, About a baby we made and why I walked away. You see I don't have a choice in what you're going to do, I say one thing wrong and our baby could be through. It's your decision you see, I don't have a voice, Whether you have our baby, it's only your choice. You say your baby is my baby too, You'll make me change my life for you. My life you'll hold in the palm of your hand, This choice you see will make me a dad. And then I have to kiss your butt, To see my child that's real messed up. And what about the fact that he might not be mine, You tell me he is and I find out you're lying. Now tell me how I'm supposed to feel, Because now I'm mad and want to kill. To be a daddy why even bother, It's up to you if I'm a father!
