I am pretty, I know I am pretty.
The males call me pretty, the females say it too,
they all smile when I walk by them admiring all that I do.
I always get that type of attention while I am at school.
They say I want to be like you, I say me too.
I am not conceded, I am telling you the truth.
Because he told me I was ugly, he said I won't follow through
he told me I have kids, our children, be a mother
and leaving them for even five minutes is neglecting my other
responsibilities.
I am a good mother
I attend school once a week, twice at the most.
Am I a good mother?
Is that too much? Am I doing the most?
I am a good mother, I work too.
I feed them cloth them provide them with food.
I tell them I love them everyday and I don't get anything from you.
But am I bad mother because I go to night school?
He said I am stupid, a stupid bxxxx at that.
I am not stupid I understand what I learn
but, am I stupid because after 10 years with him I haven't learned?
He said I am fat,
I am not fat.
Am I fat? I have to study.
I am fat.
It's late I have homework to do, I am tired and I am fat too.
He aid I need to work to keep the children up and work harder.
I did work harder but the money did not get any larger.
Should I get a second job?
School I need to put off?
He said put all my money in
with the few pennies he giving
and pay him back half.
What more can I give?
I am drained, he still sucks
I am pale but he still sucks
I a tired but he still sucks
The only way to get rid of a leech is to pull the sucker away.
