Have you ever been afraid
Because of the love we made
I know every time we make love
Some tear in me gets out
I see an unprepared for pregnancy
I see me begging for mercy
And baby don’t you understand
It’s not that I can’t be a man
It’s due to my history
What went on in my family
There were seven in the house
We had an estranged kind of love
My eldest brother was an arrested development
My fourteen year old sister away she went
Mama couldn’t stand the hurt
She went and drank herself numb
Dad got laid off from his job
Woke up to find he was gone
I had to work my fingers to the bone
To support everyone in a broken home
And mama died on a December day
Social welfare took the kids away
There was not one thing I could do
They said you’re too old we can’t take you
Sure I tried to keep in contact
But working hard made it hard to do that
I was hoping to earn enough money
To buy a house and bring them with me
But I never got a fair paying job
My education was not enough
So I never got to move up
And all the kids got adopt-ted
I’ve searched high and low
To find who took them in
But no one in the neighbourhood
I was alone, unwilling
Six years I been in the same place
The pain never let tears come to my face
The last month with you have been great
You gave me some kind of new faith
And if I could love you I would
But right now it just can’t be that good
I keep thinking ‘bout my brothers and sisters
And other things in my own existence
What if I’m not strong enough
To secure the heart of you my love
I been abused real bad mentally
I’m so confused by this society
So every time I touch your body
There’s a fear awaken inside of me
If you become pregnant
I might just go crazy
It’s a desperate problem
This curse of poverty
Please don’t tell me it’s alright
I know things always get better
But not o every one
Save me, sisters, brothers!
