No Exceptions

How many times do you have to start over before you get it right? How many times will you give up before you find something worth fighting for? How many people do you have to blame before you take responsibility for the hurt you've caused? You might have dozens of girls wrapped around your finger, you might have your family convinced that you're a changed man, but I finally see through it, & my tolerance for bullshit has reached it's limit. Nobody who has lied to me, stolen from me, & cheated on me has the right to tell me how things are going to be. I am the Mother, & I will do the right thing by Ivy.
