Bad Rap

Babygirl, someone needs to say you can't go on acting this way. If you don't learn another tune, the party will be over soon. Rude, without a clue know-it-all, that's you. Good intentions aside, you don't deserve this ride. That phony, baloney, holy sanctimony is not lost on me. Just let it be. Insecure, immature, but there's a cure. Life's journey mocks the school of hard knocks. Daddy's spoiled child; He always smiled. Welcome to what's real. How ya gonna deal? Play it out. Leave no doubt. Take a stand. Play your hand. So, what's up? Go grow up. Be a woman, Know you can. July 5, 2015
