Real Recognize Real
That's the game we play
It's not no kiddy shit
It's real life these days
I put a lot on the line
But had to come to a hault
Now it's the middle finger
But you're the one at fault
At no time did I ever
turn my back to you
I kept it 100%
Never no games with you
But in the end you couldn't
handle the simple truth
And it caused you grief,
so what's a woman to do?
We were lovers, then friends,
then turned to family
I would have given you the world,
hell-I gave you my key
But you turned from a boy to a man
then to a bitch
Never really had my back,
turns out you were a snitch
So now you cannot exist to me
Pull a stunt on me again and it's death you'll see
Cause in the end
you are no longer shit to me
So I'll handle you
like all the lames that I see
Stay the hell away from my my door,
you have fucked up now
In your mind you're gangsta,
but I can show you how
Real Recognize Real,
I don't recognize you at all
And before you rise,
I will see you fall
So take that Bonneville,
or that Old school whip
And drive it the fuck away,
and hopefully you won't slip
Cause if I see you in my lane
in any way
Dem shooters will surely be
all up in your face.

I Don't Know What To Do

Lost in a sea of tears
Drowning in grief about you
I can't find my way
I don't know what to do
I just cannot believe
That you are no longer here
Save me from my pain
Save me from my fear

You are my everything
You are the words I sing
You are the way i go
You are my every flow
You are the strength I have
You are my better half
And if there is no you
Then I don't know what to do

Lost in a sea of tears
Drowning in grief about you
I can't find my way
I don't know what to do
I just cannot believe
That you are no longer here
Save me from my pain
Save me from my fear

I have no place in this world
Where you don't exist
Find me in the stars
I'm so hit or miss
I pray for your return
All I can do is pray
Tell me you feel the same
Tell me you'll be back again

Confused

I tried my best
I'm not like all the rest
I didn't want to be
Just a new old memory

You see I put in so much time
To show you how love feels
And I tried my best to smile
Even when my heart cried painful tears

Coming home to you became more of a task
And in playing wife to you I had to wear a mask
Because you made me sad and you made me blue
And I didn't feel like "me" when I was was with you...

Don't try to change my mind
Not even a little bit
I've been this way for some time
It's such a mess, I'm tired of it
Maybe we should not try
I just want to be rid of it
You should just stay gone for awhile...
Until the smoke blows down

Some time has passed
I'm missing you more and more
I pick up the phone to call
But then I stop 'cause I don't know what I want

I know that too much time has passed
And as we're apart longer it seems so strange
I don't know what we're holding on to
Could it just be a familiar face?

Waking up to me was not so bad
And waking up to you mostly made me glad
But now that you're gone I'm not the same
And I don't know if we could make it with all of these changes

I tried my best
I tried my best
I'm tired of all this mess
I'm so tired of all this and all of the rest of it

I've just got to sleep
Sleep
Sleep
I've got to sleep
Sleep
Sleep
Sleep
I've got to sleep
Sleep
Sleep
Sleep
Maybe then I'll dream.....................

How we came to be

If I was sent to you
Then I am all you need
There is no need to look behind
Just let me be the one for you to see

I know it took some time
And you prayed for someone like me
So now that you have seen the vision
Imagine how good the reality will be

We shall sit by moonlight and dream
And talk about our faith and how this came to be
For me to be your lifemate
And you to be the same for me

Can't stop thinking of you

I can't get you out of my mind
My heart beats solely for you
My tears flow into eternal pools of sadness
Because I can't be with you
I die a thousand deaths
Each time that you leave
And I can't go with you
It seems so unfair to me
I want to hold you close
And protect you from this
To bring you closer to me
And for it to be right
But only time will tell
Where our love will be
And however long the storm goes
I pray you'll be waiting for me...

Given up on you

I know that you were hurt
Knew that you were lost
Knew that confusion caused you to run away
Knew that you wanted more, but couldn't grasp it

I tried to show you something real
Something that you didn't have to run from
Something that was for you and not from you
But you can't teach someone to love

Kindness doesn't mean weakness
But when you are broken, it's easier to run away
I tried my best, but now it's your turn
To do for yourself what you think is best

If you don't put in, you can't receive
And I hope you learn this before it's too late
The path you are heading down will end in failure
But I pray that you find your way

Long Distance

I don't know what sent you away
And can't seem to get you back
Most times I just put you out of my mind
Because when I think of you, I get off track

I cannot go for more than a week
Without at least once thinking of you
I hate that our season came to pass
And that the reason didn't see us through

I wish I could turn back the hands of time
And take different steps than before
And if I can't have you back in my life
I wish I'd never even met you before

I'm scarred with a brand that symbolizes our time
But it burns right through my skin
No amount of ointment can block out the pain
Will my heart ever truly mend

I know it's time I moved on
But sometimes I want you back here with me
My tears have run dry, so there's only hurt
And I know that we can never again be

You're not within touch, so I can't feel you anymore
And that moment (our time in love) seems so long ago
I wasn't sure if you knew that I still thought of you
So I'm writing this so that you will know....
