i believe love could bring us closer than blood

i remember having four step-moms at nine

ate at my sister's just for dinner 'cause the cookin' was bomb

her mother's supper made me love her like she took me to prom

and shoutout to the step-sisters and the step-brothers

and god-sisters

who eventually slept with us

remain loyal

for love of the babies
