I crossed the line
When i laid with another
I swear down
It was the devil's handiwork
For a moment i felt vulnerable

In the hands of Delilah
I lost my sense of reasoning
And judgement due to infatuation
Enchanted by her curves
Mystified by her eyes
My vision was obfuscated

If Adam fell, who i am?
It was the devil's handiwork
Samson gave his password
Lost his ministry on Delilah's lap
Eventually he paid the supreme price

Even though you knew
You still loved me unequivocally
While the smile fooled others
I saw the bruise in your heart
As you teared for love

Today, i remember my vows
Swear by the womb that bore me
Never again will i stray
Like a Sheep without a shepherd
All i ask is forgiveness
Laden with unconditional love

Ever been in a parade?
And the Commanding Officer says
Eyes right, forward match
My eyes are now single
Fixated only on my Jewel

Now that i am renewed
I want my Baby back
I am now a crossed check
Account payee only
Just like Romeo and Juliet
Together we shall be
Till death do us part
