I'm up by myself thinking what is going on
up till now,
I think man sometimes don't have
common senses into how to love
it is so funny how I just have given up on my defenses
I had been holding in my heart so many things
all this time that made madness come to mind
I thought he was one of a kind
but I realized it was all lies
this beat is nothing but trouble
he has cast me into darkening dreams
where it is  I hear all those screams.
He was a man that could easily twist his words
to make you smile or to make you hurt,
Now in my mind, nothing seems right
all I see is him
always ready to fight.
It wasn't long he was given me trouble
my heart wasn't doing fine
He was making me lose feel I was about to lose my mind,
this guy is not right
troubles are in his name
the kind of trouble to drive me crazy
he walks around acting like he got's everything down
when it comes to loving me
He plays around and thinks he is the king
It's kind of insane what he is doing to me
I'm searching for a reason to let him run free
To get away from me
Somewhere inside of me I know I once loved him
all that changed with all the trouble he has given me
nothing but the trouble is he
I can't even think when he is around me
I must set myself free from this sickness
he is given me I'm up by myself thinking what is going on
up till now, I think man sometimes don't have
common senses into how to love
It's funny how I just have given up on my defenses
on what I had been holding in my heart all this time
I thought he was one of a kind
But that must have been when I was losing my mind
When I let him in to play with my heart.
