lyrics

*Note: the subject matter in this song is fictional and was not inspired by any real life event.

Verse 1:
December 12th, 2010
A date where cupid shot two dear friends
It was, clear blue day, I would say
He craved her instantly so she swung his way
She grabbed his hand and said lets go
To a park down the block that she used to stroll
They flocked to the spot, and things got hot
Knock, knock, knock, knocked her up prior to a rock
On her hand, they really only just met
But that moment on the benches they would not forget
He proposed after child was born cuz he was desperate
To save his image, but no she would not let
Them unite without a job to support the kid
He got locked up in jail and was serving his bid
Cuz he robbed a store just to have the scrilla
That was the relationship killa

Hook:
I tried to lie but against my pride
On that cold blue night, heartbreak materialized
Can't deny feelings inside, need space
The pains you place, remain unjustified
And shawty cried why won't you die
To her I replied you wanna be idolized
While I'm victimized by your demise
Must rise above lady, you do not operate
As advertised

Verse 2:
December 10th, 2012
In a place where two lovers long dweled
The man was a truck driver, independent rider
His family died in the crash he was the lone survivor
Female was much younger, had a hunger
For men about her brother's age, in fact that's
How the story starts, he met her at his bar
She asked if she could get a jump for her car
Always on the road he was rolling stone, but that
Didn't mean they ain't converse over phone
He would always bring her gifts back from his travels
Was in so deep, woulda purchased her castle
Material things were good, distance was bad
Something was missing that she knew had to be had
Surprise visit, a stranger's ride parked
You could hear the shatter of his heart

Verse 3:
Present day, right now
Would have sweetly kissed her on her brow
But not today cuz since she went away
The only thing I seem to wonder is how
How could she tear me open like an envelope
A broken destiny proceeds with learning to cope
A few months of rehab, be just fine, she says
I can't love you and 'caine at the same time
The definition of fiend she streamlines
She said it no haste lacking implication of crime
I define my legacy by my success stories
My loss taken easy cuz she loved me poorly
All I know now bout what I knew then is
Highly disregarded and make pretend
Tears of loss fall as Gods cry, but I
Felt that lady's bullet cut my skin, right as
