Yo this rhyme is dedicated to those ladies
How bad things were copyright 1987
Written By Tupac Shakur and Dana M smith
Thank you

Babies having babies oh boy, it’s a shame
Society blames the mother
But she’s not to blame
Ayy yo babies having babies
 it should be a crime
So me and D, got high and made it a rhyme
And if you don’t know what you’re doing
Then don't have sex, stop acting ill
Take the pill or you’ll be next

Babies, having babies
Babies, 16, 17, having babies

You know what th-th-this is a
Story that I must tell
'Cause it's the mother not the father
That is going through hell
You know nothing of your body
You're in poor health so if you love her
Use rubber and protect yourself
Ladies listen to the rhyme and
Take it from me
These young boys can’t care for your baby
Now makin' love and havin' sex
Is not all in one
And makin' love is true and feelin'
And sex that is none
I know you're a young lady
You don't understand
You don’t need to have a
Baby to keep your man
Listen close to this message
That we are sendin'
Just start another requiem digest, beginning
Be protective of your mind
Your body and soul baby, use birth control
Party people with the message
That’s in our rhymes and make babies
Make a difference in these hard times
We’re not trying to mislead you
The message is right
It’s not a cabbage patch doll
This is your life ladies respect your body
And learn your worth
'Cause you’re the brightest light
Or this is more
Now you don’t really want a baby
You'll have time for that later
Take your time for a man
And the feeling with be greater

Babies, having babies
Babies, 16, 17, having babies it’s a shame
Slick D tell 'em

Listen fellas, protect your ladies
Doesn’t mean you love her more
'Cause she’s having your baby
'Cause you’re born in the slum
Doesn’t mean you gotta stay
Gotta rise above it all and keep it that way
Society has a way of killing our hope
As a lady, expect it, I fell all day
There's a new generation, leadin' the nation
We can’t do it on our own
We need participation
Babies having babies, who can you blame?
You don’t know how it started
Damn it’s a shame
Were not trying to stir you wrong
So don’t act ill
But you better use a condom
'cause AIDS can kill
Don’t have to be a homosexual
Can be intellectual
Brotha use a rubber whenever you get sexual
Women should be thinkin'
All the lives I create
Shouldn’t be left to a mess
Of a stupid mistake
I swear I get mad, whenever I hear
That a girl had a baby
And the father don’t care
See for him it’s a trophy to put in his home
But for her it’s a life
She’s left up all alone
So fellas listen to the rhyme
'cause you’re to blame
WHY? Babies having babies, damn it’s a shame
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Word! Shame shame, shame, shame
