Family affair

You got me feelin' orphan Annie
More or less
Than the muse of a family
Shit, is it money that my momma want?
Or is it somethin' deeper, and this is momma front?
I know my daddy gone
It's such a lonely world
Is this the reason for you leaving?
Do you feel a void?
Do he make you feel important than how you felt before?
Do he kiss you on the forehead and keep you warm?
Shit, if I was old enough to speak
I'd tell you that no money can be a mother to me
And you ain't gotta go to war
Especially if you don't know what you fightin' for
You stuck in Vietnam
You see him as a God
And I don't know who told you, but I don't see a mom I see a young teen
I don't see a problem
We're livin' wrong before your God see a proverb
Your little cub
One day a bed
One parent above, the other live scared She need love
That's why I can't have it
She can't be my mother
She's always with daddy

You don't love me (Whyyy me?)
And you don't need me (Whyyy me?)
This ain't easy (Whyyy me?)
I got no family, you too weak to leave him 

You don't love me (Whyyy me?)
And you don't need me (Whyyy me?)
This ain't easy (Whyyy me?)
Momma, we got no family 'cause you too weak to leave him

-unfortunatly i did not write this,but this is a sample from a song from one of my favorite poets/rappers (Wale) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQTOu3_E3FUsome of things mentioned are things i have been feeling lately.....

I LOVE HBCUS!

I enjoy going to an HBCU more than i thought i would. Growing up around the Virginia Beach area there is always so much negetivity towards schools like Virginia State and Norfolk State. And plus going to school being the "token" black girl made me appreciate more diversity. I feel like my high school was pretty diverse, and i hoped for my college to be the same way. To my surprise i ended up at the place i didnt want to be and i LOVE IT!I love going to norfolk state and i loove being at an HBCU. I like the idea of being taught by educated african americans and surrounding myself with educated african americans its truely amazing.  I understand this isnt the place iw ould have chosen for myself but i dont regret my decision of transfering because i truely love it!
