Just Friends

She says she just wants to be friends, no title, but I bet 
you she never had a man worship the ground she walks 
on no false idols. So I do those little things, not looking 
for recognition just wanna show her what she's missing 
no premonition, more like repetition, but she reminds me 
friendship is still the mission. Listen, I play the fence so 
vividly, she's holding her emotions but I know she's 
feeling me. Timing is everything no one likes the dating 
scene, so cliche right just a Queen looking for her King. 
But she doesn't wanna be crowned, no not yet, her exes 
had her heart in jeopardy like Alex Trabek, never let em 
see you sweat, that's how they think nowadays, seeking 
love but @ the same time the heart is a full court mess. 
Just friends, that's what she says she wants to be, maybe 
because commitment nowadays looks far from free, and 
she isn't ready for all of me. Patience is still a virtue, even 
if the heart has your mind going around in circles. I been 
told I'm the hopeless romantic, so excuse the chivalry I 
display even sometimes I can't stand it. But I'm just being 
me right, we just friends but it feels like prom night, I'm 
wrong you're right I need to stop it, making you a priority 
when you just wanna be my option. But its so evident, I 
just want a lil more from you, we don't have to commit 
no ulterior motives but I wanna be the one who you can 
run to.
