a mother's prayer
I pray my daughter never falls for a thug,
I hope she never looks for love in money and drugs.
I want more for her than quick licks and snitches, high speeds, shoot outs and these hoe games w bitches,
I never want her pillow stained from the tears she cries, I don't want her to believe them jail talk lies.
I don't want her to spend her nights alone waiting for that collect call that he's not coming home.
I pray the gang life don't call her soul, take her in like it did me and swallow her whole,
I hope she wants more than this life I've lived,it wasn't worth the name I made for myself and all the hardwork to put in,
I don't want her to know how these streets really are, bc the nigga you thought loved you took your shit and pimped on her heart, I hope she's never a apart of the players club, knows how to weigh a sack or blows cloud and sucked pipe like i've done.
I pray she loves herself as much as I love her, bc then she'd not need no man, she wouldn't be just like her mother.
