forget the cold eyes
that stare through you
and the whispers behind your back
it doesn’t matter what they say
they’ll never understand
everything theyhave was given to them
without ever having to lend a helping hand
they take what they have for granted
never having to work for shit
you are going to have to struggle
and fight to make ends meet
this situation may not have been planned
but it is far from a mistake
don’t worry about where the daddy is
you can do this on your own
if people call you “worthless”
or a “little whore”
say fuck ‘em
and prove ‘em all wrong
become a great provider
and a trusting friend
it doesn’t matter if you’re by yourself
it doesn’t matter you’re 16
it doesn’t matter what you’ve done
only what you’re gonna do
i have faith in you
bringing a life into this world
is the greatest thing you could ever do
just earn the right to be called
a mother
