Too Many Lies (Original Version)

So young she was delicasy

She fell youthfully to an embassy

Of corrupted minds, hard times

Evil occupations, blazin’ nines

In a life of the lost and forgotten

Feelin’ alone, she felt rotten’

All that could be had, was gotten’

Believe me, she cried

& Felt no sun when the tears dried

Instead she felt unified

To a world of underneathness

A world of deceit and abyss

Please she cried to the stars, forgiveness

Solidified in a union of body and mind

Wallowing in insanity as it bared to scape her

She turned to the only (there) one who would rape her

Rape her mind with unjust thoughts and words

Expose her to songless birds

Waste her glow in a shadow

Leave her with a lost path to battle

Cause’ was unforseen

She had a broad mind with big dreams

But drifted off down wrong streams

Choice doesn’t have a map

God gives man a “gap”

Between “do or do not do”

What you gon’ choose? Win or loose?

Redeem yourself or c.r.e.a.m yourself

Cash rules everything around me

But “So!, the world runs on dough”

Are you gonna live life fast or slow

Are you gonna embrace how you grow

Or instead make your name a show

And I loved you

You must know it too

That thug miss would have

Lied and cried for you

But your work took you otherwise

Off to find another wife

One who had no young memories in her eyes

All you left me with was broken dreams and cries

I remember the feeling that night

When everything “us” became despised

Oh, how I cried

Oh, how I lied

When I said it was for life

Because now it don’t seem right

Now it seems a pointless fight

Naw’ not tonight

Wish I coulda’ made it right

But for me to grow

You had to go…
