The Games You Play

I’m not amused by the games you play
By the things you do nor bullshit you say
I can tell you are used to playing with little girls
Who wear pigtails, cotton underwear and pearls
But I’m a grown ass woman you see...
That’s what I am and will always be
So when you are done playing at recess
Dealing with little girls and their mess
Come on over to the grown and sexy side
Because that’s where I reside…

My True Essence

Make It Work

Even though I stand tall
I often trip and fall
Sometimes I’m down so low
I think of just letting go

Letting go and giving in

Seeing no light at the end
Struggling to make it every day
Figuring out what to and not to pay

HE never said life would be easy or fair

But HE promised to always be there
Even when others don’t treat you right
Or when you just want to give up and fight

Even thru it all I still manage to smile

Because quitting is not my style
So I will get up and knock off the dirt
And do what I have to do to make it work

My True Essence

Journey to Loving Me

For so long I‘ve struggled with loving me
Many don’t understand how that can possibly be
How can someone who has so much love to give
Have no fear of dying but yet be afraid to live

At some point in time I lost my way
I looked in the mirror and turned away
Turned away because I didn’t like what I saw
I only saw flaw after flaw after flaw

As someone who sows seeds and wants others to succeed

I didn’t make priority my own wants and needs
For some reason I didn’t sow seeds in my own garden
Instead I let my heart grow cold and harden

My self-esteem and self-worth took a nose dive

My “get up and go” left and took with it all of my drive
My drive and determination to press on and keep going
To move forward while revolving and growing

Then one day I looked in that very same mirror again

Instead of seeing the outer shell I saw the beauty within
All of the things that held me bondage had set me free
And right then and there began my journey to loving me

My True Essence

If It's That Good...

If it’s that good, I don’t want none
Especially if it’s going to have me sprung and outdone
Acting straight crazy and dumb
Curled up in a fetal position sucking my thumb

My ass outside on a smoke break and I don’t even smoke
Freezing in the cold but about to have a heat stroke
Spending all my money, leaving me busted and broke
Shaking my head wishing it was all a joke

If it’s that good, you can keep the dick
Especially if it’s got me messed up and talking slick
Feening like I can’t function without the stick
Performing like a seasoned trick

If it’s that good, I don’t want none…
