Opposites Detract By Free Cee

OPPOSITES DETRACT

Our lifestyles are miles apart
So why would you want my heart?
We don’t think at all the same
I liked you so much but your refusal ‘tis such a shame

Can  you imagine both of us feeling the same?
I can tell you about portraits with not one frame
Yet you are over there, stuffed away where you want to be
And there is no contentedness for a specus soul like me

It began so nicely, easily, as if it was fate’s demand
Now I can’t even imagine holding your hand
You said something nice which I thought was true
But as it turns out you are bias to red and I to blue

I can understand that you don’t understand
There have been many families from which I was banned
I may be difficult to put up because of the deviants I see
But I don’t dig it when women use or lie to me

Okay it may not have been a lie per se
Call it what you want,  call it what you may
Sweetness turned sour because you think like a child
And baby, you’re too staid and I was born to be wild
