No One Really Cares


No one really cares 

 

 

We generally say hey how U been then u reply

I’m good wbu the other person would reply to that with a good 

This let me know that this very clesha hello really needs to go 

 I want someone to dig into my life instead of fastly flipping the pages.

Can I get a hey i was just thinking of you

anything that lets me know some one really cares yoo 

To be honest I do this to sometimes I talk to a old friend and say how you doing 

yes their response was I’m good  

This then points to my next question commonly asked did you make it out the hood .

see I’m a black women from a small town .

Almost nothing to do but lounge .

Folks sit around here and never move stuck to their sets with gorilla glue

waiting for someone to pull them off but they forgot no one really cares about you

sad to say but that’s the tragic tale of this old place 

No one really cares I know I don’t anyway  so can you please please get away
