Situations

This is what I should say
When I hug you
But it’s hard to do
Cause I love you

You lie to me
So easily
So frequently
It’s apparent to me

That you can’t be real
You lie about how you feel
So tell me what is the deal?
Damn just keep it real

You still continue to play me
For she
Frontin like I wouldn’t see
That your total attention wasn’t on me

When in reality I knew
You couldn’t be true
But the way I loved you
If only you knew

With my emotions you played
On my senses you prayed
Still I stayed and stayed
To only be betrayed

No longer about us 2 but 3
And I thought we would have a family
But you couldn’t be true to me
Not even for the sake of he

So as I get the courage to say what I didn’t
Hoping that you listen
Remember what you’re missing
And these lips that you won’t be kissing

Cause I’m done
You were the one
My moon and my sun
I was there for the long run
Just be here for your son

Choosey Luva

Torn between two
Nah I’m torn between three
Each one of them wants me
But being with one I just can’t see
Should I choose
Him, him or him
Nah that just can’t be
Is it my fault
That I got caught
All up in the game
It’s not insane
It’s the same
But you don’t get it
Can’t get wit it
It’s either all or nothing
So goodbye
But it’s a lie
You leave me
You can try
As do I
For the courage to choose
Fuck what I lose
Make a decision to decide
Turn my back on my pride
Sounds simple andI tried
To say I loved it
Would be a GOTdam lie
So I won’t
Put me in a corner
Don’t
So for nowI’ll date as I pls
Even if it’s with three
It’s OK for him
But not for me
Cause I am she
You would say that
Boy please

Circles

I wish the light would change
And this a.c. would work
Wish I wasn't riding in the car
With this silly little jerk

Touching my dials
and humming some songs
I wanna slap his head
But that would be wrong

Pretending not to hear me
I know he does
And to think he does this
Just because

His fault my fault
I laugh he thinks he's right
I ride silent
Cause I don't wanna fight

In circles I'm going
Not only physically but mentally
It's killing me
I pull over reach for the brake
Grab his hand by mistake
Eye to Eye
We are lost
Not only physically but emotionally
I love him and he loves me

I sit back with a sigh
As I silently wipe my eye
How much longer can we try
How much longer do we deny

WO-man

Why can't a woman be
What a man is
When part of her
Is what made he

But in no way
He remembers that
He is superior
And that is fact

He says "Raise my kids
Wash my clothes
Cook my food
And I'll have control"

Do as I say
Not as I do
Watch your mouth
And I'll be good to you

Take your money
Lie
And Leave
You don't believe

In reverse
You get what you give
You cry
Not I

Same difference
I say yes
You say no
I'm a hoe

Treat me like shit
It's Okay
I strike back
I must be having a bad day

In reverse
The game is the same
Sometimes you lose
Sometimese you win
Sometimes you get the chance
To try it all again

Denial

Right turn
Left signal
I’m in the wrong lane
Playing the same games
That had me confused
Used
And abused
Trusting the wrong dude
Has made a fool
Cause not once
But twice
I believed him
He was nice.
Told me things
Bought me rings
Beautiful rocks
Full of bling
I had to learn
It wasn’t easy
Please believe me
I tried
I cried
Took my spirit
Stole my pride
I died

Ocean Breeze

I feel it on my skin
Blowing through my hair
It takes me there

I raise my arms high
In my skirt theres a twirl
Not 1 care in the world

I kick the sand with my feet
I sway to the beat
I'm not bothered by the heat

I relax and sip lemonade
I'm outta the sun I'm in the shade
The gentle wind it turns my page

Oooh I shiver
Where's my cover?
Where's my lover?

Not spoken of but he's here
I feel a tickle behind my ear
As he whispers "I'm not going NO where!"

He smiles licks his lips and proceeds
To give me exactly what he thinks I need
Without a care in the world or a warning to heed
We made love in the ocean breeze

The Words In Between

He came to me
Wasn’t sure what he needed
But he succeeded
In getting me to drop my guard
It wasn’t hard
It was worth it
His words were perfect
Almost too per- but I’m not lyin
This man was tryin
His mission clear as day
He wants it he has to pay
Not money but attention
Not to mention
That this game he spittin
Has been written
Line for line
We could go
I already know
So does he
Mind to mind
He is me
It wasn’t in the physical we connected
It was the words we respected
Didn’t imagine..it just happened
It was real
Still
