Bird Song

VERSE 1
She lived for me, and I live for her,
That’s how it used to be, that’s how we were.
She was the one who brightened my life,
We had the fun, then she ignited my strife.
She used to wait up when I was working late,
She used to serve me hot meals upon a plate,
She even served me cold Beers from a crate,
But now when I think back, it fills me with hate.
She used to go out & buy me presents,
But in my heart I knew she was covering for up for taking my essence.
I questioned her about it, cause it got me annoyed,
But she just accused me of being silly & paranoid.
She used to be pure like a white dove,
We used to fit snug like a hand in a glove,
But she took my love, when He came along,
Its gone all wrong, but I still stay strong.

VERSE 2
I ain’t giving her no more attention,
I’m not gonna be there to finish her sentence.
I’m not gonna be the one to learn another lesson,
From now on, I’m not gonna give her name a mention.
I aint the one taking her out to eat &
Sometimes I wish me & her didn’t meet.
I aint the one who broke out in a heat &
the signs on her face showed me all of her deceit.
I aint the one giving her money to spend,
But in life you have to expect some things to end,
& I aint happy either, But when your on your own
you have to tell yourself you don’t need her.
I aint the one putting rings on her fingers &
I aint the one giving her diamonds & pearls.
But in my mouth her taste still lingers &
I will always see her as one of my girls.
