One day you'll see.
One day I'll be heard.
I'm gonna pick myself up
And I'm gon' dust off the hurt.
Its stained in my skin
But I've been through worse.
Every lie you told me
Was just layed out and unfurled.
You deserve a ******* medal.
Did you need to rehearse?
You took something so pure
And just made it perverse.
And just like Dre I was caught in a verse.
Or maybe caught your smile.
Or just caught in your words.
I should have known you were trouble
By the way that you slurred.
When you were sippin' that drink
And tryna feel on my skirt.
But you knew just what to say
To keep me from running away.
But now its getting too hard
To keep my emotions at bay.
You do me wrong once,
That's a shame in itself.
Do it again and again
Well now you're all by yourself.
And don't come to me
Looking for sympathy.
You put your own self in this situation.
See, I'm blunt as ****.
I'll tell you what's up.
And I get colder that the coldest
When I give no *****.
We could have had it all.
We always had enough.
But you let greed cloud your vision,
You let your pride destroy us.
I guess I've loved and I've lost.
But at the highest of costs.
Cause now the man next to me
Thinks he's the reason I'm scarred.
And I just tell him upfront
That in the morning he's gone.
Won't ever let him get close,
Won't let him break down my gaurd.
One day I'll be fine.
One day I won't be ignored.
This too shall pass.
Please be assured.
Keep your head up and stay strong,
You can endure.
One day all of this suffering will be over and cured.
