Take Note

*CHORUS*
I Hope you Take Note, Take Note, 
   to this letter I Wrote,

It's either him or me, 
   Girl, cast your Vote. 

Ain't nothing going on, 
   just the Rent you Say, 

But I refuse to Pay,
   if he gets to Lay & Play. 

You say you got your own, 
   and you're holding it Down, 

Girl you Pushing me Away, 
   and I ain't staying Around. 

I'm going find Somebody New, 
   you better Pay Attention, 

And Take a Note to, 
   my Resignation Mention. 

*Verse*
I ain't saying Just Words, 
   for my Heart is Bankrupt, 

& the A T M is closing, 
   due to Love Destruct. 

I'm cutting off the Flow, 
   Girl, please don't Ignore, 

I won't even Text and Call, 
   or sneak around Anymore. 

He went away, came back, 
   and you let him In, 

You said he made a Change, 
   but I can still be a Friend. 

Girl it's up to you, no Pressure:
   but here's the Question, 

Do you really wanna trade, 
   your Blessing for a Lesson. 

But:

*CHORUS*
I Hope you Take Note, Take Note, 
   to this letter I Wrote,

It's either him or me, 
   Girl, cast your Vote. 

Ain't nothing going on, 
   just the Rent you Say, 

But I refuse to Pay,
   if he gets to Lay & Play. 

You say you got your own, 
   and you're holding it Down, 

Girl you Pushing me Away, 
   and I ain't staying Around. 

I'm going find Somebody New, 
   you better Pay Attention, 

And Take a Note to, 
   my Resignation Mention. 

*Verse*
Now Love is a Language,
   that the Heart listens Too,

Talk to me Sweet Lady,
   what is it saying to You.

It's Speaking Loud & Clear,
   with Emotion Communication,

So hear all the Words, 
   in the dispersed Conversation.

Confessions of Grief, Pain,
   Anger, resentment and regret, 

Are Bombarding my Heart, 
   causing an internal Upset. 

It takes more than phone calls, 
   and occasional texts sent,

To have real relationship, 
   if Reality's the Intent. 

A many hearts are broken, 
   and left in Disparity,

When feelings are hung out,
   on a clothes line of Unclarity.

Please hear me Lady, I'm 
   Pulling anchor of the Boat,

I'm about to Sail off,
   so heed these words I Quote. 

*CHORUS*
I Hope you Take Note, Take Note, 
   to this letter I Wrote,

It's either him or me, 
   Girl, cast your Vote. 

Ain't nothing going on, 
   just the Rent you Say, 

But I refuse to Pay,
   if he gets to Lay & Play. 

You say you got your own, 
   and you're holding it Down, 

Girl you Pushing me Away, 
   and I ain't staying Around. 

I'm going find Somebody New, 
   you better Pay Attention, 

And Take a Note to, 
   my Resignation Mention.
