My Princess Growing

Started off so small
Growing so tall
Put Smiles on my face
In my head its Amazing
Grace
Hoping you won't be a static
Changing in every great way 
Its because my princess growing into
A queen

My queen you give me hope
and pride
Dignity and self efficiency you
will be someone Great I owe
it to GOD he gave me a princess 
growing into A queen
You are my light shining when 
I'm in the dark 
You make me not 
want a father not need one
I got you my princess
Growing into A queen

I'm going to raise you right
Tell you everyday how beautiful
you are 
You don't need to hear it from a 
man 
You are my princess growing
Into a queen thanking you for
Giving me hope and pride to
Succeed 

What would I do if
I lost you, God forbid
that come true
Your my life when
there is no hope
You give me strength when 
There is no time
Princess don't worry you won't 
Lose me to drugs,prostitution
Addiction and Eviction 
I'm here to stay 
Because my princess
Growing into a Queen
I will make Great decisions 

Mianna you are my Princess 
Growing Into A Queen

Daddy Come Home

Missing you 
Wishing hoping 
you would stay with me
Love me
Talk to me 
But it feels like your carefree
I want you in my life
Needing you
I can't do this alone

I need a man at home
To teach me right from wrong 
I cant hear you
your to far
I wanna feel your every
Feeling
Cant believe your not here
To protect me
I need you to show me what a man is

Why daddy don't you
Love me
Why don't you care
The fear of you leaving
I can't bare 
Losing breathe losing my mind
Daddy why want you come
Home talk to me

Be here for me 
I needed you the most
And you was like a ghost
Gone without a story
Nothing left to give
Daddy how can't you hear
My sweet sweet voice saying your name
You didn't know i cry and hide all the 
sorrow and pain

Wishing you could love me 
You won't love me 
I find  love in all the wrong places 
I protect and hide all hurt faces
Don't look at me than you will
Probably see the pain 
From my daddy not loving me
Its a hard feeling to Gain

Fatherless Still Stands Tall

Thought I needed you 
Thought you were great
Thought you were going to
be there, but now it's
too late
Hoping and praying you
would get me out that bed 
and say there's another way

Come with me I 
thought you would say
Baby we family lets 
Pray
Lets hold hands lets
share grace
I thought you would be there
Your eyes lied to my face
You love the streets more
than you love me
I lost you to everything 
why you never hold me 
Sorry to say I don't
won't you in my life I
Made it out OK
I love you but the pain
ends today.

I want a father
Really needed one to
Tell me how beautiful
I was in every way
Cant breathe don't help me
Cause I never felt a warming touch
from my Father
Only from a horny boy

I was scared that having her 
I was going to lose you in
Every way but she's here to stay
I'm glad to
cause I was missing that father
piece and she fulfilled it for YOU
She completes me
And that's why a fatherless child 
can
STAND TALL

That One

I will be great 
I will be famous 
I will be the first of
Hope
The first of Dignity
I will be there to speak in 
front of millions
I will meet Barack
Michelle will be proud
I will give back
Making effort to meet Martin
Luther King Himself
I will be that first black girl
That first teen mother 
Not to give up Hope
The first African American
To offer pride instead of money
Dignity and understanding
I will be that ONE IN A MILLION!!!!

Poverty

Starts as a child
Happy wit joy 
No care in the world
Was not asked to 
be born 
But he's here

Sorry baby your mother
was addicted your father 
was evicted, killed by
his closest friends
Never held you but
he wish he can
Listen Listen to sound
of this child's voice praying 
Darkest fears was losing 
Greatest hope was 
pretending,Listen
don't talk baby its not your fault

He won't be able to eat
He didn't know
Will never learn to read
He didn't know
Will never enjoy childhood
Will kill But WHY
Will cry He can't talk
Will Pray
GOD says to Poverty Don't GIVE UP 
TODAY!!!!

Blood

POW POW POW 

Screams from a voice 

This voice sounds innocent 

This voice sound fragile



A shot from a shadow 

Which you can't seem to make 
out

How the blood rush from her 
back to her leg



As she tries to run 

The she hears another sound 
from the gun 

Just in a nick of time she drops 
to the ground 

The laughter of the killer gets 
louder and louder



She wants to believe its a 
dream but the pain from her 
back began to sink

She slowly tries to breathe and 
capture a picture in her mind 
from this creep



As she opens her eyes she sees 
the man she loved was her killer 
he was going to be the death of 
her



I realize that girl with blood 
dripping from her back is me

Her Black Soft Back

She's wide
She's big 
She draws attention to a class
The writings on her
Soft black back
Are important there's scratch's
But from who the screech hurts
My ears the pounds gave me a fear
She hurts but she doesn't know 
Her back reaches her soul
She's African American
Ow Ow is what i say when she gets 
broken down
Or wrote on everyday
I know the pain doesn't last always
But it will for her she has no voice
To speak just the writings
On her back is her Choice

Where

Where why what who how
I ask these questions 
Everyday i cant find Home
Where is home
Why can't I see home
Who's at home 
How to get home
What does home feel
Like
I know 
Home feels great to the touch
Warmth to the heart
Love to the soul
Brings peace to the body
Home is where love stands
The love that sticks to you
Fills your body
Where why what who how
That is home now close your
Eyes and go

Im Hiding

I HIDE SO I CANT GET REJECTED
I HIDE SO I CANT FEEL PAIN
I HIDE SO I CAN CHANGE 
I HIDE SO I WILL B ACCEPTED

I HIDE MY PAIN
I HIDE MY HURT
EVEN WEN I CRY
ITS A LIE
ONLY I KNOW Y
I HIDE MY LIFE
I HIDE BEHIND MY SMILE
BUT IF U LOOK INTO MY EYES U WILL 
C IT ALL

I HIDE WHO I AM
I HIDE TO PROTECT MYSELF
U DONT REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHO 
IM HIDING.. BECAUSE I DONT WANT 
TO KNOW

My Love Is a Waste

I loved u I was there
I heard your cry
I heard your pain 
I felt the warmth of love drift
From your heart
I loved you
Was it a waste

I was there for you 
For us the pain will always last
My first love drifts away when
It rains snows but why
I don't want to give up nor in
I love you I do I do
The way you touched me
The way you held me it meant
A lot to me
But your right were different so my
Love was a waste thank you for the
Pain it will last forever!!! 
Sad to the touch
