Tupac Shakur - Brenda's Got A Baby Lyrics
Brenda's got a BabyBrenda's got a BabyI hear Brenda's got a babyBut, Brenda's barely got a brainA damn shameTha girl can hardly spell her nameThat's not our problem,That's up to Brenda's familyWell let me show you how it affects the whole communityNow Brenda never really knew her momAnd her dad was a junkyPuttin' death into his arms, it's sadCause I bet Brenda doesn't even knowJust cause your in the ghetto doesn't mean you can't growBut oh, that's a thought, my own revelationDo whatever it takes to resist the temptationNow Brenda got herself a boyfriendHer boyfriend was her cousin,Now lets watch the joy endShe tried to hide her pregnancy,From her familyWho didn't really care to see,Or give a damn if sheWent out and had a church of kidsAs long as when the check came they got first dibsNow Brendas belly's gettin biggerBut no one seems to notice any change in her figureShe's 12 years old and she's having a babyIn love with the molester, who's sexin' her crazyAnd yet she thinks that he'll be with her foreverAnd dreams of a world where the two of them are together,WhateverHe left her and she had the baby solo,She had it on the bathroom floorAnd didn't know soShe didn't know what to throw awayAnd what to keepShe wrapped the baby upAnd threw him in a trash heapI guess she thought she'd get away, wouldn't hear the criesShe didn't realizeHow much the little baby had her eyesNow the babys in the trash heap ballin'Momma can't help her, but it hurts to hear her callingBrenda wants to run awayMomma say, you makin' me lose pay,The social worker's here everydayNow Brenda's gotta make her own wayCan't go to her family, they won't let her stayNo money, no babysitter, she couldn't keep a jobShe tried to sell crack, but ended up gettin' robbedSo now what's next, there ain't nothin left to sellSo she sees sex as a way of leavin hellIt's payin the rent, so she really can't complainProstitute, found slain,And Brenda's her name, she's got a babyBaaaaaaaaby(Don't you know she's got a baby)(Don't you know she's got a baby)(Don't you know she's got a baby)(Don't you know she's got a baby)(Don't you know she's got a baby)(Don't you know she's got a baby)
