Mi Just a Tell Yuh
“I am a man”
What’s that really?
Having sex with several women
Beating a woman senseless
He doesn’t cry because it's pointless
He doesn’t communicate because it’s a female thing
Mi just a ask
Because that’s all I know a man to be
Would I want you to be my father?
Would I want you to be my child’s father?
That’s a question you need to answer
Would you date you, sir
Mi just a ask
Because I have no idea what a man should be
If you had a daughter and she met a man like you …would you cry for her or smile with joy
When yuh child introduce you to a man like you …don’t call her nuh fool… you were her example
Careful the example you set it will come back to yuh its call “karma”
Mi just a tell yuh
Don’t tell anyone yuh a man because yuh a father
Were you there for the birth of that child?
Mi just a ask yuh
I celebrate with the men that treat a woman well and be there for their child …you are so few
Mi just a tell yuh
Happy international men’s day
