Brendas got a baby


"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 ta Brenda's family)
Well let me show ya how it affects tha whole community
Now Brenda never really knew her moms and her dad was a junky
Went in debt to his arms, it's sad
Cause I bet Brenda doesn't even know
Just cause your in tha ghetto doesn't mean ya can't grow
But oh, that's a thought, my own revelation...
2Pac Brendas Got a Baby

The lyrics in this song express an unfortunate event, in where a young child was deprived of her innocence and force to take extreme measures like prostituting. She was molested by one of her own family members and went through with the pregnancy. 2 Pac expresses how this affects everyone. He believes that everyone should have the courage and oppurtunity to grow- and not let anything bring you down.

According to Brendas story, she made a terrible decision to throw away her baby-this not only occurs in 2Pac's lyrics but worldwide. Real life. Its devastating and heart breaking to learn about situations like Brendas...so what do you do in Brenda's case???
