Women's Recognition

Now I can truly see

A part of the reason you made me your one and only

It might take me a while to think and connect the pieces, but I do eventually

And that's something a man won't find out playing in the streets, And you know this

All of your attention I was given, fully devoted on this rollercoaster ride of love together

Built our foundation starting with best friends and blossomed from there

Brick by brick we gave trust, honesty, respect and love

And that's exactly how it should be

We saw the pretty things, We saw the ugly

There is always ugly, but now, I have to take my leave

Cause that's just what you want

A mind of a man's is one thing I'll never understand, But I do try

Especially when I know when someone is worth fighting for

And I really don't have to say this, we know,

All of a sudden, you've been claiming for freedom

The grass isn't always greener

They just feed you ego

Temporary happiness, while denying a security of love

The worst isn’t that I'm also being deprived, but that I have to see you sink so low

That's why you say you will, but make no effort to keep me around

Can't even treat me like a best friend, Cause we both know we are meant to be more than best friends

And having me around screws with your exploring lifestyle

It makes sense why you say "Be patient" though my heart knows what it wants,

I found a diamond in a pile of gemstones, So I grabbed it and haven't let go of my hold

Same for you,

You keep your foot in the door, but dropped full commitment

Cause you plan on being back again

Called it "No doubt in us" and after the dust has gone, you'll make your way home and expect us to be stronger than before

Who knows

Never been put through this before, not this sort of war

War between what you want and what you need, when at jump, you knew everything

Gave me consistency

I'll just keep praying, God give me strength
