No Wings

The Truth of You and I

How could you look someone in the eye

as they pray and they cry,

knowing you're the reason why

they wish to die?

I feel like I need suffrage

every time we pack the luggage

of our past because it's just umbraged.

Babygirl's throwing a fit.

Boyfriend's words are all counterfeit.

While God watches his children insist.

You think that you're my elder.

So, I just walk and felder

because I feel as if I have no shelter.

This is the truth of you and I.

All we ever do is lie

to each other, but we still try.

I think we should give it up.

I have had enough.

This shit is just too rough.

I feel like I'm telling the same story.

Our relationship was so gory.

It broke and it tore me apart.

I'm writing the same words.

No one can assure me

that there's a cure for the pain.

This isn't just pain, it's a scar.

This has stretched way too far.

I'd rather you hit me with your car

then let this keep going, it's too hard.

I'm repeating the same parable.

I obsess because I still feel terrible.

You can never be too careful

with someone else's heart.

People like me are just so fragile.

It started small, but it was gradual.

I don't lie, this is factual.

You just need to face the facts.

Your words are always attacks.

Healthy relationships are what I lack.

I pray with the incense.

Together, we are only tense.

Do you think I could hop the fence?

Do you think I could hop the fence?

Do you think I can escape?

Or is he right, I'm out of shape?

What he puts on my mouth is tape.

Never a kiss.

I can no longer take the risk.

I'll record him on a disc.

I could always use some proof,

like when he broke my tooth.

He has always been aloof.

To the way he makes me feel.

How is this even real?

I'm too young to be this sealed.

I'm telling the same anecdote.

It's always about how you gloat.

You're just so damn cutthroat.

You are too intense.

I've lost all my sense

of when things get too dense.

I am so bendable

because you've broken what's in my skull.

The abuse is not just annual.

It's every damn day,

and it hurts in every way.

It won't be over in May.

I'll just choke up

as I talk to the bishop

about our hiccups.

How can I move on

when it haunts me every dawn?

You knocked me down on the lawn.

What you did was so unfair.

You ask why I still care.

You're in my every prayer.

You took me too your lair

and let's leave it there.

I pray to forget

all of my regrets.

Nobody wins, it's no bet.

You took advantage of me.

I was so high, I couldn't flee.

If only I could've seen

what you'd do to me.

Once I entered, I should've ran.

Oh, my God, shit hit the fan.

How did I let you roam my land?

What you did was so unfair.

You ask why I still care.

You're in my every prayer.

You took me too your lair

and let's leave it there.
