It was like robbin the cradle or having a sugar daddy. Whether he was good looking or had pockets full of cash, nothing could make me happy . I wasn't even finna put on a act . Yeah , you might like me but I don't like you back . Sorry it took me a couple months to say that . You tryna mess with me , he tryna mess with me and buddy in the back . Fooling round with these niggas gone give me A heart attack . I'm tryna fall back , I gotta get in my bag ! Anything a man has done for me , I could do that . I can do better alone and that's a fact . Gave someone a chance after I left my baby daddy in the past . I was just vulnerable , he was a rebound ; I wish I could take it back. Not to seem so rude , I'm not trying to talk smack . It is what it is , I just knew it wasn't a match . It was garbage how he was acting so I found myself dodgin and dashin . He wouldn't let go , he was like " This is everlasting". I'm like " Sorry bro , but No " . " You nice and all but I can't do this tho ". As I walked out the door . He said " You just wanna go have some fun while you acting funny . It's okay tho when you get back I'll still be here honey " . Like nigga please ! You wanna fuck and lay up all night but where's the money . I cook every night and clean all day . If you aren't acknowledging it then what do you appreciate ? I did mostly everything to make sure we ate & To make sure the bills was paid . I can do better alone like I said . You trying to make me feel guilty makes you look filthy . What are you getting out of trying to manipulate me ? We will never be ! There's nothing you can do or say to me . My name is Princess stop calling me baby . Don't call me love , queen or bae . You act so deaf when I say " I need some space ". We could have been friends but you wasn't cool with that place . You smothered me with all your faith . It wasn't like I didn't communicate, I told you 5 years Dont quickly fade . I was only single 2 minutes and was afraid . Terrified to be hurt , terrified to be lied to . I said " nomore than friends ". but you still tried to . It made me uncomfortable how consistent you were . I'm terrified now I'm calling you sir . Trying to be nice in your presence so you won't take me off earth . You reminded me of my baby daddy and I knew my worth . Whatever you got going on, I ain't trying to participate. I already said I don't wanna date . You not hearing that so once again you start to manipulate .You keep pushing the fact it's turning into hate . Please , please , please just give me space . Why should I have to beg you like , " I know you be hearing what I say " you're becoming who I despise and it's already weird looking into your eyes . One eye is full of lies and the other one is full of cries . Separated like enemy tribes . It's coming out rude but I'm really trying to be nice . It is what it is and this is my life . One thing you ain't gone do is force me to be your wife . Why should I have to scream and shout or threaten your life . DAMN ! Ion wanna be with you I already said it twice ! This why I can't fuck with men . I'm gritty but you on me like white on rice . Man , I done been through so much if I knew then what I know now I'll take my own advice .
