Mama, has always told me to be a good woman.
Daddy, took that away with the back of his hand.
My siblings grew up scared and afraid.
But the weakness started to fade.
When we all.had to grow up fast,
We knew that being tired and frail, would not last.
Daddy made a monster out of some of us.
Daddy said if you want to succeed, never marry for love.
Love means your weak,
So the riches is what we did seek.
