Confessions

Now before we take this relationship
any further or take another step
I gotta get something off my chest.

I gotta confess 
threw all the anticipation 
of me & you meeting face to face
I already put forth that dedication
love and everything else
truthfully I'm liking the cards I was dealt
and the way you make my heart melt.

But note to self we gotta take this time
to get a little more deeper
now you might think I'm a keeper
but I kinda got trust issues because
A lot of females tried to put 
my heart in the sleeper.
threw the years I became a lot sweeter
but I also dealt with a lot of emotional heat

time is money and most of these females is so cheap
love is so weak, it ain't what it used to be
now maybe my problem is I open up so freely
but I'm telling you,
you'll never meet another nigga like me.

You see I had to confess this 
for the simple fact I'm so gifted 
& I been broke down with
heart brakes so I could be uplifted.
The only thing I'm missing is a good woman
but since I can't find love 
I ain't really looking.
So no matter what we might go threw
I need you to keep on pushing
