Shake It

He  took  me  everywhere,  thought  I   was  hot, Love   did  me  bad,  had  my  stomach  in  knots.  It  seems  it  has  been  days  since  I  slept,  cause  all  I   did  was  wept.   Could  not  listen  to  the  radio,  my  mind  kept  playing  our   video.  Shake  It.   He  is  in  my  head,  he  is  in  my  head !   But  no  longer  in  my  bed.   When  he  said  it  would;  I  did  not  think   he  meant  until  the  next  female  went  past !   I  had  to  find  another  way.  So  I  started to  pray.   Shake  It.  Now,  today  I  am  much  stronger,  I  crave  his  touch  no  longer.  I   used  to  only  see  the  blues,  now  I  see  different  hues.  Always  stay  in  control  of  you;  for  if  you  do  not ,  you  will  be  his  slave  for  true.  Shook !
