Growing///hearts

It took me a minute to see it,- but I never listen cuz truth never tells……..

I never pictured myself being different from others,-though distance I’m putting as well……..

The system has failed,-me….

I came a long way,-from the real me…..

I had to find me a way back….

-Cut my hair and went got me a wave cap…….

Im the same cat,

From the childhood memories,

-Nigha-I’m talking bout way back….

Before all the heartbreaks,

after the loss and the court dates-too….

Keeping trouble at an arms length,

-bursting bubbles and making an honest—living….

Controlling my mind,-to follow designs,

Don’t know what the heart gon-do…….

To give her the world,

A ring on her finger,

she been through the ringer…….

-Who saved love?

Counting the money I saved up,

She see the hurt,-I was seeing doves….

She think I’m with women, like I was her villain, I gotta admit-that I crave trust…..

-Preach!!!!!-!!

Who saved love, when the pain got deep?

Who stayed real, when the world fell asleep?

I been lost, but I found my peace,

I been hurt, but I still believe…..

Who saved love, when it all felt cold?

Who still prayed for a heart that’s whole?

I done bled, I done broke,-and I still rose above!

Damn…….

I Still don’t know who saved love…….

My challenge with women?

it’s long and it’s winded,

-won’t stop til I’m finished…….

Gone-with the wind,

-I-gotta win,

-I-gotta say sumn….

Lost in the sins,

-I-couldn’t lose,

-I-gotta face them……

Cuz avoiding reality’s awfully basic,

Like a dog in the basement,

Withdrawn from care and lacking direction to take it…….

Gotta move to the doghouse,-or be dogged out,

By the women still building their dollhouses,

We can talk bout it………

Or just walk away,

Cuz we really can’t think about much to say,

Should I care?-or maybe throw it all away?

Should I call today?

-or be a thug bout it?

Chances……

Build up a wall? Or repair the fences?

I don’t care, you can take offenses,

Middle finger to the opposition,

Just know that love ain’t a competition,

Grab a pot to piss in,

I don’t believe in fairy tales…….

It doesn’t take a lot to chip in……

Who saved love, when the pain got deep?

Who stayed real, when the world fell asleep?

I been lost, but I found my peace,

I been hurt, but I still believe…..

Who saved love, when it all felt cold?

Who still prayed for a heart that’s whole?

I done bled, I done broke,-and I still rose above!

Damn…….

I Still don’t know who saved love…….
