Baggage

How can sorry be enough For all of the pain I've inflicted on you Mainly when none of my pains Were caused by you You were my life saver From a bad situation I knew I wanted you to be my wife When we first started dating But I held back my feels Because I was going through a moment of healing Healing for myself, from my pass And to have you involved was the last Thing I wanted, but my mind was like F**k it Because loving you is all I wanted Yet and still my soul was scared By the woman before you So it was very hard To trust again, and allow you to have my whole heart After she mistreated it, used and abused it And just simply tore it apart I was once told that we all have flaws So I invited you into my life And I shared my scares with you Hoping for a break through Not knowing that my baggage would break you So how can I'm sorry be enough for you When none of my hurts and pains was caused by you 98 was a bad year for me My mom died from cancer My woman cheated on me Spreading fast and running rapid As much as she pleased She even got caught with one of my old buddies Never mind the fact Momma was warm in the ground yet And she was creeping with this dude Collecting a WELL FARE CHECK So how can sorry be enough To someone who's such a total package I never met to because you pain With my extra Baggage
