No such thing as a fairytale in 2017


Let me tell ya about a time 
I thought it was in love 
Thought I was in a fairytale 
Made me feel like a princess 
Yea he also called me his queen
And he bought be things like rings that bling and food never failed to make sure I was good 
But behind those words 
Behind those actions was a coward,a liar, and a demon beneath
Much like the other guys in this generation
Talking to other bitches 
Man I wanted to give him stitches 
Yea he said he had good intentions 
He didn't mean to hurt me on purpose 
But if he didn't do it on purpose 
Why did he do it in the first place 
Man I'm every mans dream girl 
I mean boy have you ever seen my dms 
Always blowing up from the am to the pm
All saying they'll treat me the way that  you didn't 
Course I didn't reply 
I'm not even gonna lie
All I wanted was you 
I was so blinded by the "love"
All I saw was you 
But you had to go and ruin what we had 
And yea boy I'm blaming you 
I never played or deceived you 
I was and still am perfect
You made me feel bad
But then I got bad 
So bad you had to block me again 
So you don't feel like shit for messing things up with someone like me 
Or was it that new girl of yours? Intimated by me 
Worried about me
Knowing how much of a good person I was to you too
I mean if I was her
I'd be worried about me too 
That's not the point though 
The point is I'm over you 
And other guys like you 
Have been for a while 
You broke me in ways I never thought was possible
But from the bottom of my heart 
Thank you for that 
Thank you for the lies and heartbreaks 
Cause honestly I wouldn't know what I do now if I didn't ever break apart
You made me realize I deserve way better than you 
I deserve a man, not a boy 
With respect,class, and manners for that 
Someone with real goals not a wack ass rap career
Someone intelligent, and kind, someone who sees what I'm worth 
Cause honestly I'm fucking priceless 
I'm the best 
And my best is yet to come 
So yea ig when they say love is blind 
It really is fucking blind 
Eyes opened 
I got them wide fucking open 
And I'm really hoping 
And I'm really knowing
Karma gonna get you 
In ways you'd wish you were another person 
You helped me find my fairytale
The fairytale of a successful, happy life
Love will come when it comes 
But for now 
I just wanna be successful
So fuck you and the other guys like you
Which sadly
Is the majority of this generation. 
I guess you could say this is another Cinderella story only instead of losing a shoe
Im losing you. 
Best think to ever happen to me 
I now can see.
