NOT READY
Lyrics
We're too young to have a baby
My final thought is no,I'm not skeptical like "Maybe"
You're questioning my love for you and intentions quite lately
You're reflecting on the past, try to mirror what we're facing
Patience
I'm in second of uni, a year from graduation, I'm tryna get this education
An infant in the picture is gonna change the situation
From grad celebrations to baby shower preparations
You've never met my fam, it's not easy back at home
I've got a brother and sister,mama raised us all alone
How do I tell her that you pregnant right over the phone
She's gonna ask if I'm crazy, it'll break her to bone
This baby needs to eat, and shelter for it to sleep
Pampers,baby formula and it ain't coming cheap
I won't let my baby suffer and be a victim of the streets
So you need to think this out cos it's not making sense to me
I just think we're not ready
This is not what we need
I just think we're not ready
This is not what we need
Not ready
I don't want you to leave
Not ready
You the one that I need
You niggas are all same, you'll say any thing for the cake
The moment we hit a hurdle, you panic and runaway
I saw the look in your eyes when I said my periods late
Not a trace of that love from earlier on in the day
You're so selfish
You not the only one in school with a lot at stake to lose
You're a self centred coward, I won't clean you plate for you
It's my body it my choice,you can't tell me what to do
You acting like a trapped you, and forced you to fuck me raw
I asked for love and affection, I never asked you for more
I can't believe this side you're showing me, I wish I saw it before
I'll just raise it by myself, leave I've opened the door
You can go on live your life, I'll support it by myself
You can start another family, I don't even want your help
You can go home to your mother, I swear I won't even tell
Her son is bailing on his child like his father did to yourselves
I just think we're not ready
This is not what we need
I just think we're not ready
This is not what we need
Not ready
I don't want you to leave
Not ready
You the one that I need
Life's a mission, but I'll figure it out
Sometimes I think it would be easier if my dad was around
But mama held it down, I just wanna make her proud
She did everything he didn't she was the man of the house
I'd try to ask about my father she'd just switch up the topic
I guess I reached a certain age where she had to be honest
She said he left us, cos he just wasn't ready
In my mind I'm just thinking why she couldn't be petty?
Mxm
I met this honey on my campus she the same age as me
Black hair, Brown skin, beauty spot on her cheek
Baggy hoodie, sweatpants but she still looks on fleek
I was fucking with her and she was fucking with me
This one night we met, and we finally had sex
A Couple weeks finally passed and she sent me a text
You know that feeling you get, that's like a knife in your chest
And you're rethinking your choices, all you're left with is regret
Will I do to her, what my dad did to mama?
And just move on with my life and let them live on with the trauma?
Or do I try to break the curse and save the next generation
So they don't have deal with what their elders were facing
Not ready, this is not what we need
Not ready, I don't want you to leave
I just think we're not ready, this is not what we need
Please don't say you're not ready, I don't want you to leave
We're too young to have a baby
My final thought is no,I'm not skeptical like "Maybe"
You're questioning my love for you and intentions quite lately
You're reflecting on the past, try to mirror what we're facing
