He lived next door but one to us
and chased me down the entry.
We went to school and played our tricks.
We worked at weaving - wenched and fished.

Listened to the deadly yarn
the friendly seargeant spun.
Signed us up, lined us up like bobbins
waiting for our places in the sun.

Willie shared a fage with me
before the whistle blew.
We had a packet left
so shared our memories too.

We walked straight as shuttles
through that valley of the Somme.
Six hundred fell with Willie
'neath the barrage from the ***.

The slaughter carried on.

The East Lancs filled our ranks
from outside Accrington.
Will sharing **** catch on?

Skin
Silky smooth
Like satin bed sheets
Creamy and peach
Like FAGE yogurt
Undisturbed and unwrinkled
Like a pool of endless youth

Hair
Perfectly sculpted to curl and swerve
Like writing on the surface of an ice rink
Colored an array of various toffee browns
Like the fanciful coffees of foreign cities
Softened and voluminous
To fill every corner of a room like sea foam

Eyes
So young and bright
Like that of a newborn child
Blue and unbelievably light
Like staring into the tinted mirrors of a palace
Rounded and flocked by milky lashes
Like fluttering wings on a swan

How am I to fall
In love
With someone so utterly perfect
And so utterly different
Compared to me?

I Had love someone  with all my might.
But he did nothing but put pain in my life.

So we departed n that **** really left me BRoKen heaRt'd.

Months pass'd & ! Had regain my strength.
But then I saw h!m.....& i Fell once again.

& then A year pass'd & I Had a strong stand.
Got me maken right moves, I Was constructing my land.

Had no sorrow in me, not a single trace.
**** i Didnt even remember his face.

But one night I saw him & all that was burried relived.
So We TalKed & I  Thought, so I Was back with this Kid.

& foR some reason I Thought he'd changed.
I was wrong.
he told me "Yo I cheated on u n Ima start singing Lullaby songs".

I Fell to the ground with masive tears.
Felt such an imence pain that would last me years.

Didnt hear or see him for months, I Was still handicap.
Still NuM, no color 2 my life, **** it i aint want it back.

Yeah he had me like that.
But I GIve hIm BIG propS.

CAUSE He IS the 1st n laSt for me.
but ONE nIght I Saw hIm N he Saw me.

Ask me why my eyez where so lonely.
As 1f he didnt know but he really didnt cuz he never cared.

So I reminded him n he said "grow up life aint fair".

Do u, Move on n live.
As much as it hurted me I Had to...so I Did.

N thats when I Grew strong n stood tall.
Promised myself I'd never eveR Fall.

Now im back n that whole lovy dovy concept is out.
Love dont live here n that to me is something Im no longer about.

No longer wish to have it.Thats something I dont need. I Mean im living good now, I got what I Need.

Got my spot, pair of wheels n a whole lot of green.
Im looking at the sky just feeling the breeze.

Man **** LOVE IM GOOD.
N **** that fage *** n his wack lil hood.

It's 2015 n now hes on my **** asking for forgiveness.
I Aint that weak ***** so go on with yr business.

Who crys now does laugh later.
Get the **** out my face, go to your ex & date her.

Cause this **** queen don't want u nor need you.
Got my 5, got my green & I Got a true Ride or die too.

Rasha, wuta ce a duniya
Zafi nata yafi na Arabiya
Ta sa yara kuka a samaniya
A cikin su har da su jojiya
Tun talatali har da ceceniya
Rana tsaka tabi yukreniya
Ta share fage da sakaliya
Kowa tsoro sai hayaniya
Ya kasa kata6us sai kiriniya
Ya kasa zuwa farfajiya
Ya kasa ya tsare ayi rakiya
