Circle of Hurt
She invited me into her home I entered I didn't wipe my feet I didn't bother to take my shoes off I left footprints all over her floor I raided her refrigerator and her snack cabinet I sat on her couch I laid in her bed I showered I used her towel to wipe me clean I put my clothes on I left without saying thank you

No Prob
Why do people act like we don't need each other? When the fact is We need each other! Men don't wanna need a woman Women don't wanna need a man Who are you fooling? How do you plan on reproducing? Do you plan on reproducing? What are you here for? Every day of your life depends on the billions of people that go to work every, single, day If no one shows up to do their job You don't eat! You don't have any luxuries! We enrich each others lives in every way possible but we don't thank each other enough We hardly even acknowledge passersby We don't appreciate what we do for one another We don't acknowledge all the love around us! We don't wanna see... I could blame a hate, money, and power driven government but it's not their fault We are smart! We are powerful! We know better! We are better! The government is not to blame for what goes wrong in the world I am and so are you It's our fault! We let this happen! We watch guns tear down the life of so many humans and do nothing We let children be stripped from their homes to be sold as slaves *** slaves! We let our earth become a wasteland!! We did this! Not the government! The government is not that powerful We are! We decide what happens next.

Let it be
I've been abused by love Used by love Subdued by love My love is to strong To ever lose my love I want you to see my love Need my love My love is simply a seed My love Plant it and watch it grow wings my love I am free my love From everything that's inside of me my love I give to you I live for you I am you And you are me too All this love that I have is inside of you My love grows in you Holds on to you My love is your love Our love is so new I want you to free my love So that you can see my love Love my love Nothing above Nothing below Our love will grow Our love will grow

My Love
Her hands were cold Her eyes were sad She said nothing There was no need This was not just goodbye It was goodbye to me I didn’t say a word Just a hug Not even a kiss I still wear the bracelet on my wrist Walking the streets Tears graze my cheek I am free

Gone
I’ve seen some things Lord knows these eyes have seen a lot Teenagers in love My best friend got shot Life ain’t no joke But you’ve got to laugh That’s all I know I don’t know much I’m just a man I see, I try to understand I try, I do what I can I’m just a man that sees I don’t know what it means I’m just trying to figure it out

Been Alone
I went around to the corner store I ask the man behind the counter Can you give me change? He says no, you’ve got to buy somethin I say well I don’t want nothin All I need is change He says you’ve got the change Why are you bothering me? I didn’t reply Just walked out of the store I thought to myself And thought some more
