    Where's Daddy

    First day of school, and daddy wasn't there
    he wasn't at home, what made me even care
    mama dropped me off, detecting my pain
    grandma even made it, she walks with a cane

    Daddy Where Were You?
    to the streets you were true

    Eighth grade graduation, another important day you miss
    glad you didn't come, would have gave you my behind to kiss
    had no fun with family that night, just a friend
    smoked so much bud, like there was no end
    cause each broken promiss, left me with a broken heart to mend

    This emotional roller coaster, I took a riding
    it expressed all the true feelings, I was hiding

    High school graduation don't get no verse
    had responsibilities that weren't mine, what a curse
    Mama's boyfriend touching me like he does grown women
    crying, fighting, screaming for you, as he burst my tight lemon

    Daddy Where Were You? Why didn't you save me?

    Was taken to the doctor, now I'm having his baby
    Mama didn't believe me so I had a silent abortion
    you left a child that needed you, how do you sleep at night
    don't you think of me, has to be a hard fight

    Now as a woman, I'm no longer dreaming
    of seeing us together, smile's brightly beaming
    didn't give up on you yet, but I've protected my heart
    I no longer feel warm inside, like a pop tart
    You'll never be there, I've learned my lesson
    breaking your last promiss, was a blessin

    I grew tired of asking the Where's Daddy Question

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
