Daddy's Gurl

By Kamaria Ngozi






look at Daddy's Gurl
a warm heart
tryin' to survive
in a cold, cold world
swine B full of her pearls
Daddy's Gurl

searchin for love
behind closed bedroom doors
leavin each man
with another
piece of Her soul
hoping the next
will have what it takes
to make Her whole.

will She find
Daddy's love tonight?
perhaps with the Brotha
She just met at open mic?
maybe She'll find it in
the do-WRONG man
Shes been seeing
on and off since last summer?
Gurlfriend may suprise us all
& just pick a number.

searchin for Daddy's love
in all the wrong places
if it's wasn't for their lies
the men would be faceless.

look at Daddy's Gurl
a warm heart
tryin' to survive
in a cold, cold world
swine B full of Her pearls
Daddy's Gurl.

an I love you here
a trinklet or two there,
next thing you know
Daddy's Gurl is "out there"
like residue
trading in Her goods
for a secret rendezvous
or rather
temporary satisfaction
settling for words that
contradict action
emotions tangled up
in screams of passion.

to share a moment of your time
She'll B your private dancer
not knowing that inside Self
lies all Her answers
to the questions that continue
to plague Her mind,
She will no longer desire to cast
Her pearls before swine.

look at Daddy's Gurl
a warm heart
tryin' to survive
in a cold, cold world
but she still B a Ghetto Pearl
Daddy's Gurl.
