Little Girl, Little Girl

Author's Note:

This is a poem inspired by Keke Palmer's Music Box.

Little girl, little girl

Plug your tiny ears

Don't listen to the shouting

Or the words that you hear

Little girl, little girl

You could be a president

It doesn't matter where you started

It just matters where you ended

Little girl, little girl

Listen to me close

You're gonna get some food

And a nice little home

Little girl, little girl

You're daddy's coming back

He didn't want to leave you

Your mama's why he's mad

Little girl, little girl

Hey look it's a distraction

If you ever lose a loved one

To cry is your reaction

Little girl, little girl

Go raise your cell phone high

Raise up the light for

People who ain't getting by

Little girl, little girl

Please shut of your ears

Don't listen to the sirens

Or the shots that you hear
