My Cousin

They said you was sneaky But your sweetness blinded My judgement They said you couldn't be trust But my heart see through flaws My heart got me caught up in your web You was a dark entity up under me Watching my every move Studying my walk My talk My style You wanted my life You conquer it You manipulate my presence In twisted it for your selfish Agenda You drove my car Wore my clothes But now I know Your intentions was my man He fell for your cobra spirit You wrap around his temptation In took it home base With your upper hand He lost the battle with his weakness You both made a mockery of me You two got a thrill off my hurt My pain My love I had for you two Had the world thinking I'm paranoid I'm crazy Praying my hurt don't turn into hate Now the tables turn You caught some of his blows You lost grip on your life You had put your trust on sweet nothings After you witness my tears in pain Through the years He incarcerated drowning in misery Waiting for his judgement You self medicating your pain away I forgive you both My cousin
