Song-Not Okay


I can't describe the feeling in my chest

I may be blessed but I'm still feeling stressed

I can't find words to say what it feels like

But I'll say it's like losing your life

26 months but in the last few weeks

Saw how yall talk it's destroying my sleep

I did believe that what we had was true

But now I know I didn't have all of you

 

We can't control how we feel, but we can control how we act

If you're torn between she and I, here's what is not okay to do

Constantly communicate, using any pet names, talking 'bout yall what ifs, and even calling her babe

Sexual insinuations, going to where she's at, and worst of all saying you love her back

 

I know I have asked you numerous times

How you kept lying is blowing my mind

Kept her around well I see how it is

Why care that I had two of your kids

You made me think I was the only one

Securing my kingdom just couldn't be done

Knowing that you think of her makes me weak

I just wish you only wanted to touch me

 

Chorus

 

It helps to hear you explain

But I know I will never feel the same

I'll get over what you chose to do

I just put too much trust in you

 

Chorus
