And
then you get bitter mad at God
because he asked you to come
and I say why would you put me in this vulnerable situation
you know the things that have happened
nothing would happen if I had a stable home
and then you feel bad
for being born a girl
and weak
and with a big sensitive heart
pretend to be rough out there
but here I can't pretend
it hurt me, it all hurt me, the people
and their fake niceness, it hurts me
and I m tried of crying
but glad its finally coming out
when you are a girl
and homeless and keep walking the streets
the comfort of being still is something you can not begin to imagine
you think by moving a lot you won't look homeless
just like a regular person walking
I was pregnant and in subway and the guy
he felt bad for me
and I was so beautiful
and so great
and there I was, pregnant and alone
with the guy working across the street
and he wouldn't come to me
they say you replay the past
daddy why did you leave
and angel why did you have to leave to
you said all these beautiful words of
you'll make it work and get 2 jobs I you had to
you couldn't last a week
left me alone all pregnancy
even when I went to the emergency room
what were you doing, playing video games?
you play with someone's life
its not a fair game
they have fun, we get left with the consequences
and then the pressure to work
so you don't have the profile of welfare
Cesar took it personal
like he was going to pay for diapers
and food if I didn't take the government's money
