18 Years, 18 Years…

She got one of yo kids got you for 18 years
I know somebody payin child support for one of his kids
His baby momma’s car and crib is bigger than his
You will see him on TV Any Given Sunday
Win the Superbowl and drive off in a Hyundai
She was spose to buy ya shorty TYCO with ya money
She went to the doctor got lipo with ya money
She walkin around lookin like Michael with ya money
Should of got that insured, GEICO for ya moneeey
If you aint no punk holla We Want Prenup
WE WANT PRENUP!, Yeaah
It’s something that you need to have
Cause when she leave yo ass she gone leave with half
18 years, 18 years
And on the 18th birthday he found out it wasn’t his

Now, I ain’t sayin’ she’s a gold digger…. but she ain’t messin’ with no broke niggaz. Kanye, my man, you ain’t lyin’. That is one infectious song. Can’t seem to get it out of my head. I’d say I have to admit that Mr. West is probably one of my favorite rappers out there right now. He’s a little too full of himself for my taste, but not nearly as much as the gangsta types. He even admits it in a lot of his songs, talk about the pressures of material possessions in his line of work.

I would be remiss to not mention that males have their own agendas when it comes to pursuing the poontang. But as a biased male, I might give the nod to females for confusion factor alone. With guys, its of course sex… and females should always expect that. At least to some degree. I don’t care if he’s a bible-beatin’ Jehovah’s Witness or a bovine worshipin’ Hindi, the bottom line is: he wants to tap that ass. He might have secondary concerns on top of that, depending on his maturity level. Such as:

• Is this girl marrying material?
• Can I hit it again without the least bit of commitment?
• How big will her ass get after she has kids?
• How many years can I live with her and not go crazy?

Now those crazy women on the other hand, you have no idea what they might be thinking. They’re all different. You’ve got the sincere one that actually cares for you and wants what’s best for you. Then there’s the “I’ll do anything to keep this man” kind, who will resort to even these tactics:

• The ol’ keep-a-nigga-baby [the classic]
• Sabotage part of his life
• Use sex to get at his money [see Gold Digger]

And then there’s all those in-between. I’d say the majority of women have tendencies of both types, even though they probably won’t admit it.

You’re probably asking yourself if I’m some misogynistic fool who likes to debase women. Which is pretty far from the truth. What I am interested in is the truth. I think we’d have a whole lot less social distortion in our global society if people would just tell each other the truth about their intentions. But alas, that will never happen.

Why you ask? Because even if 99% of the males on the planet were honest about their intentions (mainly that they’d like get up in them guts, and maybe find a girl they get along with in the mean time), then the 1% that lied would have a complete monopoly over poonany. It’s all about perception folks. Your reality is all made up of perception. If you perceive that the handsome man-cake you met at the discotheque is determined to sweep you off your feet with nary a thought about snapping that G-String, then so be it, as long as it makes you happy. If he can create that reality for you, more power to him.

On the flip side, if the 82 year-old millionaire is convinced in his heart of hearts that the double-D stripper from Deja Vu is in love with his mind, then let the old coot have his dream.

The real lesson here is: Just don’t be surprised when your “perceptions” of reality shift a bit.
