Ladies Listen Up

This world we live in constantly revolves around money.
But that doesn't mean we should walk the streets honey.

Just because what we need is coming in slow.
Doesn't mean we should put ourselves so low.

We are precious jewels that should be treated as such.
Not worthless mules that can be sold in a bunch.

WIthout us, men are nothing,
So obviously we make them something.

So ladies, hold your head up high,
Don't let a man knock it down once they walk on by.

We run our gift.
So just because they have money, don't let them lift.

What we have is priceless,
And if they running game with fat pockets,
They obviously brainless.

But when we are seen on the street corners,
They don't hesitate with their boners,

They are quick to choose
Quicker to make you feel like booze

Faster to leave your ass,
Back where you started, in **** class.

Ladies we are too good for that,
Our lives weren't meant for that path.

So what do we need to do?
We need to stop being blue.

Go back to school,
If you're still in, don't be a fool.

Having an education is the most important thing.
Don't let that pass you for a man and a ring.

Because after he gets some, you were just a fling.
