Right Now.....................
Right now, I'm a look back on the things I said
I wsih I could go back and regret the things I did
That sunny Monday, morning that I layed in bed
I thought I would become a women
Playing roles and playing with myself instead
Right now I look back on the things I did
Makin me wifey, It was like playin house
Giving me a ring that made my finger turn green,
and lately its been bending into something so serene
Right now I , look back on the things I did
A capable girl corrupted with swirls
Laying down on my back and never rewarding
For feeling like trash
A piece looked upon as gold but intrepreted as silver
Traded in at the pawn shop
Society looks upon me as nothing more than a 25cent lolly pop
Right now I look back on the things I did
Never regretted meeting this fella
Throught he would bring me more joylike cinderella
A nubian queen turned around walking the streets with her head hanging down.
I pray a price whiich isalways right.
Always let in the store or a lonely draw.
I'm always left behind, because of my own kind. I withdraw from inner being,
I relax because I have no meaning.
I am quiet because no one listens.
And I vow to be a Christian.
I am complicated and you can't figure me out.
I am lost in this world and I want to find a way out.
Right now I look back on the things I said
I might be a hypocrite but what I say and what do can only be a unite.
I rise to the occasion , of showing myself approved
But I constantly value, of how the world looks at me and you
A long lost self worth nothing and no wealth.
A constant backfire of shots flying at my back
I lost apart of me while going through trash
Trash I call it, Another meaning for men
I change sizeswhile I add on pounds.
I constantly eat and one comes 1 week and then he suddenly leaves me weak
I thought I had a good one but he lied and decieved.
Now I'm on the next one, which he really seemsas if he has me.
Right now I look back on the things I said.
Right now I back on what I regret.
A cinderella or snowwhite that just woke up.
I realize that I really need to get in touch.
