Roteshia Mcghee Poet I do not know?

You Think You Know?

You think you know me
                                                      But you don't
                                                   You think you can
                                                       But you wont
                                                You think you know me
                                                        Deep inside
                                                You think there are things
                                                     I'm trying to hide
                                                   You think I'm selfish
                                                       I think I'm not
                                                  The things I did for you
                                                      I think you forgot
                                                    You think I'm mean 
                                                       That may be so
                                                         And if I am
                                                      I think you know
                                                       I think the past
                                                       You can't let go
                                                  Now our future is so, so
                                                You think you can judge me
                                                      I think you can't
                                                     You think I'm this
                                                         I know I Ain't!
