Sometimes It's Okay I hear Brenda's got a baby, but Brenda's barely got a brain A damn shame, the girl can hardly spell her name That's not our problem, that's up to Brenda's family Well let me show you how it affects our whole community Now Brenda really never knew her moms And her dad was a junkie putting death into his arms It's sad cause I bet Brenda doesn't even know Just cause you're in the ghetto doesn't mean you can't But oh, that's a thought, my own revelation Do whatever it takes to resist the temptation Brenda got herself a boyfriend Her boyfriend was her cousin, now let's wipe the joy in She tried to hide her pregnancy from her family Who really didn't care to see or give a damn if she Went out and had a church of kids As long as when the check came they got first dibs Now Brenda's belly's getting bigger But no one seems to notice any change in her figure She's 12 years older, she's having a baby In love with a molester who's ***in' her crazy And yet and all she thinks that he'll be with her forever And dreams of a world where the two of them are together, whatever He left her and she had the baby solo She had it on the bathroom floor and didn't know so She didn't know what to throw away and what to keep She wrapped the baby up and threw him in a trash heap I guess she thought she'd get away, wouldn't hear the cries She didn't realize how much the little baby had her eyes Now the baby's in a trash heap ballin' Mama can't help her but it hurts to hear her callin' Brenda wants to run away Mama say you're making me lose pay And social workers here everyday Now Brenda's gotta make her own way Can't go to her family, they won't let her stay No money, no babysitter, she couldn't keep her job She tried to sell crack but ended up getting robbed So now what's next? It ain't nothing left to sell So she sees *** as a way of leavin' hell It's payin' her rent so she really can't complain Prostitute fam, she slayin' And Brenda's her name, she's got a baby Baby Don't you know she's got a baby? She said the baby Don't you know she's got a baby? She said the baby Don't you know she's got a baby? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no Where is your home? Where is your home? You're all alone But the baby Don't you know she's got a baby? She said the baby Don't you know she's got a baby? She said the baby Don't you know she's got a baby?
