I remember the way you’d caress my curves
The way you’d make me crave your tender touch
You had this way of getting on my nerves
But then you’d make me want you so much

And the way you’d kiss my lips —

The way you’d kiss my lips
squeeze my thighs
Then grab my hips
Your body sent me on a natural high
You had me mesmerized
Almost like I’ve been hypnotized
But I’m too dignified
for me to be criticized
Because I almost feel victimized
The way you made my legs feel liquefied
you’d hit my spot, then had my eyes
rolling. They were too busy to see through your disguise
because just one look . . .
one look had me paralyzed

See when i met you I was half innocent
but only because I was hella bent
That party we went to was hella litt
and because I can’t get back all the time that was spent
I resulted to using some social lubricants
Damn, If only I wasn't so ignorant
I woulda saw right through your arrogance
but back then,
Baby back then that was all irrelevant

You sold me an American Dream
You made me believe I’d be your Queen
“One day we’ll be married”
That’s what you told me

See back then I was a fool
But now I KNOW I was lied to
“We’ll have a white picket fence with a pool out back—
And we can spoil our kids and give them all that WE lacked”
I mean, it sounded good
but when you're young and naive like me
You’ll fall for whoever makes you feel good
even if you know you shouldn't believe
had my dumb ass thinking we were living in a movie
You used me like I was just some sort of groupie
had me blinded because you're such a cutie
and I failed to realize MY inner beauty

I damn near forgot my self worth
Something my mom instilled in me from birth
had me thinking loving you was a curse
when deep inside I only FELT the reverse
so now I have to pour my heart into this verse
knowing damn well this shit only makes me feel worse

Because your game was tight
it all sounded like
what you need to hear when you tryna get YOURSELF right
You don't know how many times I cried at night
praying to God, he’d let me win this fight
because what’s done in the dark always comes to light

But Now,
now I thank him for the blessing
he showed me some boys are just supposed to be lessons
and though you took from me what can’t be returned
I have to say you were a lesson learned
See, now that I know what I’m worthy of
I’ll wait for a man who gives me what I deserve
someone who will accept all my crazy
and treat me like a lady
cause no strong black woman wants a nigga thats lazy
Someone who will place me on a pedestal
Someone who’s gentle and respectable
Someone who will be so unforgettable
Someone so impeccable he’ll keep me feeling incredible

But until he comes, I’ll wait
I’ll leave it all in the hands of Fate
