Weeping Quill by JigsawKillah(m): 10:46pm On May 16, 2018 |
I know they say real men don't cry So I let my quill do the weeping Good Lord! I'm an adult now Every mistake, is my fault now Expectations, when I fall down Is at an all high, I am all now But I can't handle it, the pressure I'm a dad but to dads I can't measure All I had, all I wanted was pleasure Instead I got blessed with a treasure Can't even buy my boy the finest things Timbaland boots and designer jeans Fila cardigans and dark lenses My failure downs my smart senses Can't even get a job that pays No time to take him to plays It's not like I don't make time I spend all my time to make dime I pay attention, I stay woke Yet I'm still foolish and broke Poor people are not wise My coats are oversized If someone had asked me What'd you do for your son I'd say I'd do any I'm tasked with Feed and raise him, but I can't do none I can't even think of to die I can't even think of to lie I know all I can do is try Reason I can't even cry Reason my quill is weeping What a failure I am Not tears but blood it's dripping Dad, what does it takes to be a man? © Ovedje Jeffery Jigs' 10 Likes 9 Shares |
