Another Statiscate

Another statiscate Hey you with your press on nails, fake ponytails and to your back hair weaves. Hey you with your kids in the system while you swearing you miss them. But still recieving your welfare checks. to support the habit that got you into this mess. Hey you with your slick baby hair, claiming unknown ancestors to disclaim who you really are. saying your half belize and 3/4 cherokee. to prove that your different than the rest. When we know that your mother and father are *****, and were born just up the block. Hey you with your golden book of words that speak the truth. Blessing people with your words of wisdom. just waiting for them to come with a comeback to critize my truth. but hopeing they listen to the words so they won't become another statistic.
