Shattered Spirit!!!


 

I wasn't there

But I did care

Your life I was suppose to share

I'm sorry for leaving how did I dare

 

Besides you I should have stood

And help you get out of the hood

My mistakes were bitter, which is no good

Forgive me if you could

 

You needed a figure

To tell you don't  pull the trigger

And be careful using a scissor

Never intended, so chill and take a sneaker

 

I told your mum I would be faithful

But other woman looked tasteful

I read you one bedtime story so kid be grateful

Could've been better but life is just painful

 

I said I would stick

And that your mum is the only chick

Should of checked my Kik

But guess I'm just a dick

 

Submerged you into sadness

And killed your happiness

Instead of light, I brought you into darkness

I deserve hell, because your soul is harmless

 

How cute you wished we get along

But I'm not gonna sing a song

So precious child please stay strong

And unlike me never do a woman wrong
