In This Battle To Find a True Man

You said you'd always be there And never let my heart tear My past made me think the worst It was hard to trust you at first I kept barriers with the way I felt But your words made me melt You proved you'd never make me cry So I thought I'd give you a try Your presence brought me joy You made me believe I was no toy Things started to go well You were the one I could tell Just as I started giving you my heart Things began to fall apart All the promises made you started to break I finally knew you were so fake You mesmerized me with your charm And acted like you were no harm But all you ever wanted was a pass time You treated me cheaper than a dime It was a joke to you all along You didn't care how much you did wrong Now I'm left to think how blind I became I was so stupid to fall for your game You must be so proud to be you I bet I'm just one of the few Your game will make you go mad When karma gets you so bad Yours actions have made me stronger Now I'm ready to fight harder I won't be a fool no more Its like being in a war In this battle to find a true man
