Brendas got a baby
Brendas got a baby
I hear Brendas got a baby
But, Brendas barely got a brain
A damn shame
The girl can hardly spell her name
Thats not our problem, thats up to Brendas family
Well, let me show you how it affects our whole community
Now Brenda never really knew her moms
And her dad was a junkie, puttin death into his arms
Its sad, cause I bet Brenda doesnt even know
Just cause youre in the ghetto doesnt mean you cant grow
But oh, thats a thought, my own revelation
Do whatever it takes ta resist the temptation
Brenda got herself a boyfriend
Her boyfriend was her cousin, now lets watch the joy end
She tried to hide her pregnancy, from her family
Who didnt really care to see, or give a damn if she
Went out and had a church of kids
As long as when the check came they got first dibs
Now Brendas bellys gettin bigger
But no one seems to notice any change in her figure
Shes 12 years old and shes having a baby
In love with the molester, whos sexin her crazy
And yet and also thinks that hell be with her forever
And dreams of a world with the two of them are together
Whatever
He left her and she had the baby solo, she had it on the bathroom floor
And didnt know so, she didnt know what to throw away and what to keep
She wrapped the baby up and threw him in the trash heap
I guess she thought shed get away, wouldnt hear the cries
She didnt realize, how much the little baby had her eyes
Now the babys in the trash heap, balling
Momma cant help her, but it hurts to hear her calling
Brenda wants to run away
Momma say, You makin me lose pay, and social workers here everyday
Now Brendas gotta make her own way
Cant go to her family, they wont let her stay
No money, no babysitter, she couldnt keep a job
She tried to sell crack, but end up getting robbed
So now whats next, there aint nothin left to sell
So she sees sex as a way of leavin hell
Its payin the rent, so she really cant complain
Prostitute, found slain, and Brendas her name, shes got a baby
Baby
