Shynell-Tasha-Tinina-Chana (Continued)

Listen, I know the game
don't give it up now.
I know my words don't align
with popular culture
and cut deeper than a two edged sword
and may cause discomfort but not
as much as the pain when he doesn't call again
and it was a fraud
There is no time for learning the hard way
Don't give it up now!
