Stepping Over the Line
Listen -
I'm a grown ass woman
And I ain't got that much time
Left on this earth
That I'm going to worry about
What I can say
And what I can't
According to proper
Friendship etiquette
So if I want to verbally
Step over that line
And tell you
I think you're hot
Knowing full well
That an impenetrable fortress
Will never be breached
What is the big deal?
So I'm going to say it
I think you're hot
From the safety
Of a text message
