Age May As Well be a Number

"Age may as well Be a Number."

Age may as well be a number because of the way
the young males are doing themselves in.
The females aren't going to have males their age if they
keep dying, they'll have no other choice but older men.
In fact most of the females don't have nothing in
common with those who want to be thugs.
They have the mindset that will either put them
in jail or have them laying out like rugs.
I'm not saying that some of the older guys would
be any better since many are irresponsible too.
They have males who really only have one thing
on their minds and one thing they want to do.
Our women have too much they go through on
their own without having some Jackass in their lives.
They get too many empty promises and lies from
someone who want the milk without making them wives.
Settling for a male has been the worst mistake that many
females have made and has cost them dearly.
There are more single parents without the support
of the sperm donor and the numbers grow yearly.
Our Sisters need standards and values in their lives
when it comes down to those who they get involved with.
They need role models and need to stop following the crowd
the foolishness of male selection they really need to quit.
Age may as well be a number but why go from a young
fool to an older one when you should go from a male to a man.
Their is a difference that you can't see from just looking
what you have to know is where a male fails a man always can.
A man who has been changed by Yah will treasure the one
Yah has given to him and care for her kids as his very own.
He will be the father figure and will set the example to
kids because he knows he's the only father they've known.
My Sisters open your eyes and let your sense and your heart
direct you through Yah on the person you need in your life.
If you're going to go for an older man let him be one who
is ready to take you and yours as his family and you his wife.
Save yourself for your wedding night and no free samples
should you ever give away to anyone at all.
You need to know that you're worthy to be a wife not
anyone's whore you're no one's Booty call.
