Your Loss

I know my capabilities
But, you won't get it like that.
I know how I love
But, I can't love you like that.
You're just a dog
Trying to catch the cat.
I'll blow back your braids.
 hand you your hat.
Beat you down with a bat.
 F*** that!!
Knick, knack, patty wack.
Your loss, 
Gotta pay the cost
to be the boss.
 read between the lines, 
dental floss.
You're tossed, 
in the trash.
never needed your dusty ass.
Plus you wasn't dropping the cash 
When the rents due.
Nigga f*** you.
F***ing up my face, 
Scars on my heart.
 Was blind from the start.
Walking around, head down.
Stuck in Demonic love
I was bound. 
True Tee, 
no, F****** around.
Hands hitting me.
shattering all personality.
My Reality.
Normally, never weak.
But, this nigga had a hold on me.
I had to let him go.
A CAPITAL, T.K.O.
Hell no. 
You're no King.
"That's for sho"!
Tears singing.
"Soprano".
Should have left your ass.
A long time ago.
Washed up from the shore.
 you, and those dirty whores.
Loving you is a battle.
"WAR"!!
Can't take it no more.
Got my finger on the Barrow.
Time to close the door.
Hurt me, to the core.
"That's not what I stand for".
Sent me through hell
and back again.
Hell and back again.
God, never left.
Always, my friend.
"While you're tryna pretend".
First aid kit,
ain't getting it.
Me and cowards don't mix.
Carryijg the shadow of a broken spirit.
My Father's, my witness.
You gone get the business.
What comes around, goes around.
"Quickness"!! 
I'm just too damn good for this!!
On my bad side!!
"  list". 
Time for the album drop!!
Closed fist.
I don't need this !!
Called the quits...??

Thanks. I made a few mistakes, and a little editing can do no harm. LOL
