YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME
3/30/13
Broken by words that were pretty tough
Accused of not being good enough
Shun by rejection
Torn down by deception
My weight was your problem, and that was so hateful
Not because I was unfaithful, disrespectful or ungrateful
A fantasy had blinded you from what’s pure, what’s real, what’s rich
Endless love was replaced for short term pleasure offered by some trick
Attraction was lost, a relationship tossed
Cheep sex was your cost
So now you’re free to break hearts or even have yours broken
What we had has passed on like a subway token
Real love they say is hard to find
You once had real love...remember? Just press rewind
Still searching now for your beauty you roam and you creep
When will you learn that beauty is only skin deep
The exterior took precedence over commitment and support
A heart shattered due to sexual lust that your mind distort
You’re so quick to give love without any concern
But looks like you’re not getting any back in return
You’re the fool; you really don’t know what true love is
It’s not something you give out and take back in a fizz
Love is not just a word to be tossed and taken light
Or something to say while sexin some chick at night
Love is more than you know or will allow to enter your life
You meet a girl and within a week you say she’s your wife!?!
So sad because love is what your life has been missing
By a person who was always there for you, and you keep dissing
They say “there’s a thin line between love and hate”
But true love will over look all your mistakes
It’s a give and take, a sacrifice, when you are a person who is real
Fake love follow those who a heart they only plot to steal
It catches up every time without a doubt you will get yours
Because baby you are far from perfect you to have many flaws
So the next time your manhood stands up at attention
Hold back and be sure you mean it, before the word love is mentioned.
