This is a story, that many, fail to understand Young Elisha, had a daughter, named Ebony Ebony had to go through it all, on her own This is a story This is a story This is a story Of Ebony versus the world It all started when elisha had a man who made Her bed rock Had a baby out of wedlock, did the father stay, I guess not Elisha's now a mother, slanging dope with her Brother They looking out for each other while Ebony Sleeps in covers But Ebony done grew up Her body blew up Her momma praying she don't screw up, cuz She can't lose her She never taught her who to hang wit, not on No lame shit But Ebony wants a man with greatness, her Dad's the lamest Yearning to be cherished by a man so she was Brainless Dating men from different ages, unacceptable, Outrageous She met a player they was kissing on a daily Basis No one told her he was heinous and Occasionally dangerous They was at a party he put roofies in her cup His homies always knew what's up and frankly They ain't give a f*ck They knew that she was drunk and helped him Put her in the truck Ebony had just woke up, but she was stuck And out of luck They took her to a warehouse house where no One could hear her scream Them niggas pulled her by the Spleen and Raped her like it ain't a thing In this world, we live in It's a crazy world we live in crazy world Just hold on, don't give in Hold on, hold on, hold on Keep your faith Keep your faith baby girl Livin' in a place that's so imperfect She Laying there in agony but no one Intervened The men were over thirty, Ebony was in her Teens They left her there for dead but she went home To weep instead Her mom quivered when she saw that blood Was dripping from her legs The moment was surreal, her daughter's pain Can't be repealed Elisha blamed it on herself and then she Overdosed on pills Ebony is now alone so she moves in with aunt And uncle They ain't hear about her struggles so her Silence left them puzzled She got a reputation as a thotie Shortly after Every man who asked for sex she said okay Like it ain't matter She was being so abnormal she got Questioned by her friends She says she sleeps with all the men so she Will not be raped again She wants to have control but trauma got her Feeling powerless She pregnant now and no one ever thought She would encounter this People start to joan her, and her family Disowns her Cuz she opened up her legs for every homie With a boner The baby's getting closer all her friends had Folded on her She gave birth all on her own and doesn't even know the father No friends or family her life got tough and That's for real So She prostitute to handle all the bills It was good, she had cash and started racking Up the stacks One day she was at the club until she fainted And collapsed Friends and fam were in the ER pondering on What to pray for The doctor said that she has passed away but Need I say more It was the consequence of hyper sexual Behavior Ebony had died from HIV Stage four Her funeral was packed, and everyone was there for her It's funny they ain't care for her til it was time To bury her Her father came to watch them put his girl in The grave He knew her death was all his fault but this is All he could say In this world, we live in It's a crazy world we live in crazy world Just hold on, don't give in Hold on, hold on, hold on Keep your faith Keep your faith baby girl Livin' in a place that's so In this world, we live in It's a crazy world we live in crazy world Just hold on, don't give in Hold on, hold on, hold on Keep your faith Keep your faith baby girl Livin' in a place that's so imperfect Reach out to your loved ones Look out for each other Ebony's tragic story came to an end because Her friends neglected her Her aunt and uncle neglected her Even her mom left this world, overdosing on Pills couldn't even help her out She was going through it all alone Her father wasn't there from the jump From the jump Take care of our loved ones Look out for each other
