Mary Story

Mary came home from the job centre sick of claiming benefits
A story bout a single moms pain she suppressing it
Father aint around to support & he isnt trying to listen
Told to abort plus he stayed persistent
Mary thought that he would change his mind
After seeing the baby a couple of times
So she kept the pregnancy quiet and went to stay with family
Hoping that the father gon come around gradually

Nine months later baby Joseph born happily
But Mary hasn’t got a job let alone a salary
It’s a hard knock life as a single mum
Family said she needs to move out if she hasn’t got a job
So now the stress is building up
Can baby Joseph‘s father doesn’t know he’s got a son
Mary hasn’t stopped to break the news to him
Sent him a WhatsApp picture to get him used to it

Joseph dad pulled his phone out he got a new message
Don nearly dropped his phone
When saw what Mary Sent him
Flashbacks of times he told her to get rid
One year later walking round with his kid
You see the game it gets thick
You see the game he gets thsick
Guess he should used protection

Joseph dad thought he was a player like Beckham
Stop! breath! lesson!
He never thought a baby was part of the bargain
And when he told his friends they just started laughing
Because Mary ain’t the type of cheek you have a kid with
Joseph dad depressed sipping on that liquid
He knows at least 50 brother hit it
Mary come and do the whole gang man she wicked

Joseph took a few days to adjust to d’situation
Days of depression processing information
Them dates add up Joesph got bad luck
Maybe this the karma for his sins better man up
Hes got a baby now it’s all different
But he’s only 19 guess and he can’t see the vision
Of coping with a kid & playin his position
But staring at a whatsapp picture won’t make a difference

Same time his Looking in the mirror
Thinking about Mary an how the mandem been with her
He could act like it ain’t his
But deep down he knows that it is
Lump in his throat he showed his marjey The pic
She said now boy you better listen
The baby got your eyes got ur nose
Best take care your children
Your father weren’t around so you know that feeling

I raised you by myself while your father sat in prison
The struggle to survive had me thinking
Suicidal thought On a daily were consistent
Either u man up or u move out
Cause I won’t have u living here if your acting like a fool now
Joseph pissed thinking what to do now
Sitting in a dark room thinking that’s it’s too loud
Thinking it’s just too loud
