Still Thinking About My Ex

March 2, 2015

My life is kind of hectic

Like a completed checklist

When I look back on my life I see that I have dropped some fine dimes

I avoided the dimes ‘cause they are already asking for my last name,

but I had to tell them that I do not carry around loose change.

My ex’s are reckless.

They told their mom they found a good guy in me

So then put a check on their checklist

And put their booty on another guy’s waist like a neckless.

When I use to look in your eyes, I can see what heaven is

but now you have indulged in the chains of high school.

Getting drunk, acting out, and piercing Gods treasure and only saying whatever.

You have become a gardening tool that doesn’t feel happy unless a guy is in your room first

That will not be the death of you, but your future

That’s real ‘cause if you read this you will have chills

The same chills that a girl is having when struggling to pay bills

And when she thinks of how she could be living on dream 'ville

Still I have to chill because this is only high school

But the present sets precedence for the future

So it’s like putting the predicate before your future

I’m kind of sad you had to do this

And I really loved the fact that we could do this

This, as in a bunch of temporary forever’s of doing whatever

Embracing our stormy weather with God by our side we could do that together

But you said whatever cause you wanted quick pleasure

I really feel offended because you had me embezzled

You thought I was just another boy who used girls for toys

But I guess you were not in God’s plan

Thus I’ll find another queen to help me take over the land.
