That Glow Up

Listening to Smokie Norful 

Reyna Biddy

And a little bit of hood music is the only things that kept me sane 

I could honestly say the realest thing that has ever held me down

We was together for almost so long 

until I put my foot down

You would always say i'd act different whenever my friends come around

when really they just reminded me of who I am

You came to your own understanding that I've found interest in someone else

When really dealing with little kids were beyond me

You started to see my glow and realized you couldn't let me go

wouldn't take not one chance of it 

But I wasn't having it, I couldn't take the chance of not acheiving my dreams 

over toxic love

At that point you felt that glow up

I started to make so many moves

Huge ones, started doing what I was suppose to

Try to help you 

Try to motivate you for so long

But you didn't want it...

So what more could I have done, time has ran out

I gave you the opportunity to come up with me, but you wanted to stay down

Then you questioned me

questioned all of me...

I knew what was right, I knew what could've gone wrong

So I did what was right, ignored that question

Now look at me 

I took that glow up and ran with it!
