Birthing a New Me
Push, Push, Push! Is what I heard him say
Oh I am! Damn this is too hard
It's late in the day
and I don't know what the Hell I was thinking
Again! I should not be doing this at my age
This place looks small feels like a cage
I am thirsty and hot
Push! Push! Com on give it all you got
I thought I did that
At least 10 years ago
I really thought I had everything under control
You know had things in order
That was all in my mind
Life, it's not so kind
Oh! Come doctor take...take...take...it out
Ms. Jones no matter how loud you shout
You are going to have to do this
Come on doc don't dis
Help me
No! now push we got all night
That ain't right
Let me be
Push, Push, P-U-S-H
What is the rush
Come on
Alright I am P-U-S-H-I-N-G
I hear this strange sound
Ms. Jones come on I see something round
This time my feet will be planted on the ground
Push....I see the shoulder
Life....I will be bolder
Come on you are almost out
Yes! I shout
Come on keep going don't stop
Oh! I'm not I'll reach the mountain top
AAAAH! Doctor Doc is that it
Am I done
Now, Ms. Jones it has just begun
When dealing with your new life don't run
Don't try, do your best
And the LORD will take care of the rest
As he cuts my cord
I shout Thank You LORD
Here Ms. Jones here you are
CONGRATULATIONS on birthing a new you
