Love

You know what I use to think about babe, While I was gnawing on a fat pork chop? Smilin' bout' how life really meant nothing, And how I'd found out it was all a scam. Grandpa said, always be true to myself, So, to me, I was just bein real cool. I thought trustin' would get you screwed, big time. From then on, I never let my guard down. I'd never let people know, I could love, Because, I was afraid they'd just use it. The only times I'd come out on the top, Was when I had to lie to somebody. I thought I was just another chess move, In a game plan that didn't include me. Then one day, you climbed on back of my bike.
