Father

Dear father today I was told that I am refugee
Does that mean I can’t be who I am destined to be?
The little girl in my class says she is smarter than me
Cause immagrants come from the other side of the sea
Anyways I gotta pack my books crayons and my pens
Love you dad keep me safe no nightmares and Amen
Those were my prayers around the age of 6
Identified jealousy quick them nasty old girly tricks
The formula to make your soul disintegrate
Can be pride and hate mixed with other nasty human traits
When you own a pretty face it’s envy that you can’t escape
So I keep to myself Mary Jane and some papes
F you girls that will be hating
F you boys that will be lying
Worry about you and yours
Stop preying on me and mine
God first family second
Acquaintance third no fourths
No friends no time to pretend

Father don’t you hear me
I am alone I can’t see
Father don’t you hear me
I am alone and I can stop crying

He prepared a table right before me in the presence of my enemies
Now my enemies wanna be a friend of me
You prayed to God for my downfall, he granted me a blessing
I’m grind we never resting, it’s greatness I’m manifesting
Higher power I am portraying
It’s all dragons that they be slayin it’s homage that they be paying
No nigga, no I ain’t playing adults that, admire my pretty
Immune to my intellect so when they speak
They have the most utter respect
Kid or not, I’m a get a knock better come correct, ain’t consume with the cash
But you better cut the check father can you hear me?
I am calling you all alone I be stuck in my zone and I ain’t diddy
But I am coming home my sperm doner been MIA
But I thank you for his absence cause it made me who I am today
But I am good mom has been doing just fine I got a father upstairs
That I call on like any time

Father don’t you hear me
I am alone I can’t see
Father don’t you hear me
I am alone and I can stop crying
