Since You Left E

I still remember when I met you on my Block waiting at the bus stop. You were tryna spit game but I didn't wanna Talk. I was only fifteen and in need of A friend. Next day you caught me slippin' at The bus stop again. Posted with my homie Juice, we was introduced. Mama said be careful who you give your heart To and it's true 'cause when I gave it To you, there really was no limits to the Things that I would do. At sixteen I gave Birth to your son Zayden. He's my life savior but his daddy's just a Player. They say that love is blind but what I've come to find is that love shouldn't make You feel sick all the time. And now I realize that the love was merely Fear. Now I see so clear when I'm lookin' In the mirror. You give and you get, compromise And respect. After all you put me through, yo, I still wish you the best. I've been thinkin' 'bout you every night since you Left. I realize I'm better off Alone. I've been thinkin' 'bout you every night since you Left. I realize I'm better off Alone. You was killin' me slowly but I couldn't even See it. Threats about takin' my life when I Talk about leavin'. Emotionally tangled by your Abuse and lies and I wanted Zayden to grow Up with both parents by his side. Your pride so high and your ego so evil, Deceitful. Never did I feel like your equal. People told me to leave, said I didn't deserve It. You shot down my self-esteem, made me feel Worthless on purpose. Say I'm flirtin' just 'cause I'm laughin' at a joke. Even had a dress code, why couldn't I let It go? My success revealed the envy in your Eyes and actions and every time we made love I felt no satisfaction. You dismissed my side of the story and make Me feel stupid. Put me down in front of My friends. Why you always gotta do this? Even spit in my face in front of our Son and that's when I knew, I knew that I was done. I've been thinkin' 'bout you every Night since you left. I realize I'm better off Alone. I've been thinkin' 'bout you every night since you Left. I realize I'm better off Alone. You were never the person you portrayed in the Beginning and without you by my side I feel I'm finally livin'. I was slippin' in the darkness But now I see the light and it shines So bright from within me every night. I'ma keep pushin' regardless. How do you love somebody who's heartless? All I know is I'm gon' finish what I Started. It's time to be a woman, I'm ready To grow up. Never saw myself as beautiful until We broke up. Now I'm goin' back to school, Pursuin' everything I doubted. Sometimes I sit and wonder if you even think About it. If you even realize all the unnecessary Trauma. How could you be so cold to do That to your baby mama? Never knew you was a burden until I stopped Hurtin', until I started breathin' and I opened up The curtains. I know this for certain, I'ma raise Our baby right and now I realize my importance In this life. I've been thinkin' 'bout you every Night since you left. I realize I'm better off alone. I've been thinkin' 'bout you every night since you Left. I realize I'm better off Alone.
