Enemy of Love
To satisfy their need's.
To satisfy their want's.
To satisfy their love.
Is to sacrifice myself.
To hate myself,
Or to hate you.
To disrespect myself or you.
To do wrong.
No matter how long.
If you want their love,
You need an enemy of love!!!
In order to get along.
You have to put others down.
Make them hurt,
As your hurting you.
Make them cry.
While you cry.
Stomp them into the ground.
If you want their love,
You need an enemy of love!!!
In the end he's beaten,
She's beaten,
Their beaten,
And your beaten,
And i'm beaten
Yet,
Still i get up,
Forgetting how i was treated.
While they go on and play their selfish games.
I wait instead to have an enemy of love.
Every single one of us is treated differently,
But all disrespected in almost the same ways.
They can kill you,
They can kill me,
They can kill all of us,
They can do it softly or brutally.
Only using their own words.
Get me outta here,
Take me away.
Oh, The enemy,
The enemy of love.
Mentally,
Physically,
Emotionally,
Evan spiritually...
It hurts!!!
I stay quiet and ignore but it only makes it worse.
There's no way outta this,
No escape.
Say or do something please--
Your only taking a big risk.
For the enemy of love carries along list!!!!!
