Praying to God!
Single mother struggling
Wondering how she’s going to feed her baby
Just laid off from her job
No money in the bank
Bills need to be paid
And got a new one in the mail today
Only one thing on her mind
Feeding, clothing and paying for the life insurance for her baby
Can’t get food stamps
Don’t qualify!
Can’t get assistance
Don’t qualify!
Unemployment if qualify
Not even enough to provide for her child!
Baby daddy might as well say a dead beat
I guess if I was his cousin’s baby momma (baby daddy’s new girl) then I might get some help!!
His family doesn’t even call to check up on the baby
Her family can’t help out
They so far into debt they can barley provide for them selves
Sitting back trying to get a grip on things in her life
Losing her mind
Stress on high
Life insurance $20.00 a month
Baby food $.99 or $1.09 a jar
Baby juice $2.25 a bottle
A months supply of diapers and wipes $55.00
Clothing! Too damn much!
Trying not to turn tricks!
Trying to keep her self clean!
Trying to not show her goodies for everyone to see!
But looking into her daughter eyes
She knows that’s not what she wants to tell her daughter
When she gets older
So all she can do is pray to God to give her the strength
To not loose control of what she has left of her life
