Emotional drain
Broken in pieces not sure i can fix
Nor heal the way I wanted to
Mfs was doinnn meh so mfinnn filthy
Since I was a lil leight
Came in dis world gloves on , straight swinging
1st battle was my journey coming into dis toxic world beings my birth
A toxic ship that mentally destroys & shifts chemical off balance 😪
Wet blindfolded used for cover - shaking colder den a cold December shoulder , nor no peace , no soul, no heart since a Lil leight
How Is thus the only normal
Ahhhhh love what's dat
For child had to become an adult
Never knew what it truly meant to be safe
Wasn't allowed to get comfortable
Had no choice ,.where home was or whom was home
Knotout, after knotout
Eyes barely open only could see the Grey light flashing
Shidd was coming in fast from all angles different directions
Had dem knifes so deep in my bacc
Came from mfs that claim they was soild
Shidd came blazing from within
Mfs that was around meh smile in my face
Dem shaper knifes was flying in first class
Cutting meh so deep 😪
Shidd split meh into two
Cut in between my younger meh & the grown woman /mother meh
Some reason this shidd hunting meh
Everything came baccc the nightmares /the fading in & out the daymares becoming more real & itz staring to feel all to real
I can't shake this burden 😪
I just wanna wake up from this nightmare
This shiddd definitely took /broke everything up outta meh
Pieces steady fallen shallowling everywhere
Why tf is this always the topic of your conversation
Wanting mehh to suffer to please your ego is a disgrace
Willy knot knowing Willy
WHY tf I gotta deal with this shit ,
For the rest of MY FUCKINNN LIFE
It's no way that's so
The most wicked shidd be happening
Be formal here let's really get it out
However yuh choose , yuh can even perceive, I'm still gonna win
Ahit be goofy asf to meh
Having meh stung for a beift moment
Then watched da shidd play out & mfs cricket's NOW
HOW CAN THIS STILL BE ON MEH
Dis shidd will knot take nomore of my energy
Did the time , took them rounds
Came out a kid body
Where was my opposition ?
Put this big responsibility on a child having a child
Shameless knot yhhh dnt even have one ounce of heart in yuh
Tninkin im Facing it headstrong , by da force frm behide
Slowly it became real & rushed forced left with no other option
Finally wax healing frmm it
Illusion became my biggest creation
I even spoke openly about it more
Couldn't bare to deal wid it kant afford to get stuck bacc there
Couldn't deal with the emotional affects roller-coaster ride it took on meh
Refuse to cry bout dat shidd .-shidd will knot make meh weak ever again
Mfs lied ...talking bout this shit , didn't make shidd hurt less da pain never eased up not once
Shidd jus become more realer as I rip off each bandages
Things I suppressed away slowly came up in different forms in many seasons
It's odd doe
How it became so much to bare when I started taking off bandages
Soon as I said enough is enough
Stand frim in wohat I already knew
I'm whom it happen to
Had to learn how to reroute
Get thru dem lanes without getting evy in yhh
Why tf i gotta prove it's 9soj ,when yhh kno it's so
All my life mfs was trynna / thought as if they could control meh
As if they could detain meh
Mutilate my feelings
Meantime by getting briefly gifts
Tied my shoes strings
Throw meh down to mh knees
Abuse meh ,take meh anytype of way as if I was your possession
Who gave yuh that right
& NOW YUH THINK YUH GONNA WIN THIS FIGHT
