It's a New Year!

It’s a new year
Time to not shed a tear
It is time for a change
And don’t act like its strange
Over a year I have let you control me
I think its that time you just let me be
Yes we stopped dating
And we were never mating
But yet you try to keep these strings attach
And I realized that its up to me to detach
If I really meant something to you
You would’ve been quick to call me your boo
You said you couldn’t because you have someone
But its funny cuz you had me way before hun
You claim you want to be my friend
But you don’t act like you're tryna be there til the end
You always seem to have some problem with me
So us being friends is no point I see
Its that time that I am strong again
And surround myself with real men
In pieces you shredded my heart
I let you cuz I wasn’t so smart
But you grow and you learn
And for that I will never burn
You asked where did this new person come from
You created her and made her numb
Its time I stand up and its today
Cuz I cant wait for you to lead the way
You are just selfish
Wanting to have a side dish
That just makes me sick
Cuz you already have a chick
special is what it seems you are
but you just pushed yourself way too far
there is nothing special about you
other than you want your cake and eat it too
I stood up for myself and told you what was on my mind
You make it seem like its in my head but your just blind
a boyfriend is what you’re supposed to be
but a boy is still all I see
you say you dont play any games
but everything you say is all claims
you might think they are right
but that’s only in your sight
I had to make you see my side
And now that im right you can go hide
Im done being on some hook
There’s so much pass you and im willing to go look
Its about time I open your eyes to this world
It might seem as simple as a circle but really its swirled
You simply wasted my time
Im glad I didn’t spend a dime
Now that everything is off my chest
I feel different more like the best
All you did was put a mess in my life
For that I hope you make her your wife
Each other is truly what you guys deserve
Because you guys got some nerve
You guys do the same dirt
And love to secretly bring hurt
You are nothing but conniving
And all im doing is striving
I told you everything that built up about how I felt
You looked so shocked like you were gona melt
Your only response was that you got to go
You didn’t really care for me is what you show
Its all good though because Im a new me
And Im going for my goals and you will see.
Just remember all that you did
And grow up from being a kid!
Always remember that life is good
Because it can always be worst in the hood!
