severed ties

time plus distance

a persistent equation

what was once infatuation

got lost in translation

communication

we severed ties

plagued wit the pain and all the lies

i refused to see the signs

cuz in my mind

i could always see a fix

but up ya sleeve you had speed when it came the need for tricks

homies came wit a list

that I would dismiss

wish I could’ve seen through the mist and pick up on the hints

i said fuck it they don’t know you like I know you

through ups and downs I had no doubt we would always come through

man, how fuckin stupid could I be

so foolish and so clueless never thought love coulda blinded me

you cheated so I retreated,

yet to be defeated till ya begged and pleaded speaking sweet nothings you knew my hearing needed

fool me once then that’s a shame on you

go and fool me twice that’s a shame on me

but the biggest shame I couldn’t see, the truth you was feedin me

would cut through my seem with a womb forever deep

it wouldn’t take days nor weeks, for me to recover

not months try years bitch you really burned a motherfucker

damn I was a sucker suffered bein the punchline to your joke

the last laugh was mine when I sailed from the dock and cut ya ropes
