Transaction
If you're in it
Then own it.
Every facet
Every detail
Every store tag
Sale or retail
If you bought it
Then own it.
And not just the poppin' collar
But the frayed seems too.
You can't have the best of everything
Without taking black and blue.
So if you bought that shit
Rock that shit.
If you're in it
Be in it all the way.
Commit your heart
To what your hands are doing.
But if your heart can't take the beatings
Can't take the string pullings
Can't take the borderline abuse--
Then look at what your hands are doing,
From your broken heart's eyes.
And return that "poppin' collar"
For a better fitting size.
