[Intro]
You know, in life
We all make certain decisions that
Can alter our forever, but
It’s not ‘bout what you go through
It’s ‘bout how you pick yourself up and keep on movin’
Look

[Verse]
Uh, and she was 13 and pregnant by this n***a
That she fell in love with at this party she attended
She was drunk, she admits it, her friends think she’s trippin’
For fallin’ for a n***a that was known for fuckin’ bitches
When they tried to warn her, she said “Stay up out my business”
And even if it was true, it wouldn’t make a difference
She was head over heels, nobody could convince her
Now, what they had wouldn’t еven last through the winter
Thеn came that December, a month she won’t forget
She wanted to tell him, but she didn’t know what to expect
But she did it, and when he picked up, she heard her best friend
Hung right up in his face, took a couple steps, then started sheddin’ tears to disgust
Then looked at her stomach and said “It’s all about us”
Not much later, she gave birth to her 8 pound KiKi
But we just gettin’ started, believe me (Believe me)
18 years later, KiKi graduated
Her mother was always broke and stayed aggravated
She told her mama “Listen, I got a job flippin’ burgers”
But what she was really doin’ was strippin’
6 days a week, a grand every night
And in this very club, she met the man of her life
A clean cut, older cat that always would tell her
“You don’t belong under these lights, you should be somebody’s wife”
She always thought that he was right, he took her out the club
Then put her in the crib, she was thinkin’ this was it
She still hit her mom with cash every now and then
Every time they would talk, she’d ask “Baby, how you been?”
Now, KiKi had to break it to her mother, she was pregnant
And engaged to this n***a that she messed with
Her mama said “Congrats, and I hope I get to meet him”
But little did she know, them very words, she would eat ‘em
KiKi pulled up to the driveway, told her future husband that she loved him, and she would never place nothin’ above him
To build his confidence because her mom was gon’ judge him
She took a death breath and said “Fuck it”
Then walked up to the door
Now, KiKi had a key
She let herself in and screamed out “Mom, it’s me!”
Her mom said “I’ll be down in a minute when I’m finished gettin’ dressed, I ain’t get the chance to clean so I’m sorry for the mess”
Now, KiKi started laughin’, her man got to chattin’
But neither one was ready for what was about to happen
Angie walked into the living room and dropped to her knees
When she seen the n***a that her baby girl brought her to meet
Now, KiKi seen a look that she ain’t never seen before
Then her n***a stood up and said, “Say it ain’t so”
KiKi said “What?” Angie looked right at her daughter
And told her she was about to have a baby by her father
