The Other Woman's Perspective

Location

From woman to woman I don’t mind being the other just as long as I don’t fall in love

I’m secure knowing that he loves you although he’s thinking of me

I’m secure knowing that he comes home to you when he spends his hold day with me

You try and intimidate me with your wifey status without the rock but I don’t think you aware of the promise ring I’m wearing

See all you have is his seed you are bearing but in no way scaring me because I dance in ecstasy while you bathe the in grief

you thinking about him when your man thinking about me

Never losing a bit of sleep because your lover is loving me

in my warm embrace is where he wants to be

It’s my sweet fragrance that lies in his clothes

And I’m mastermind of his excuses when 3 o’clock comes and he is walking through his front door

I love the all the material things he buys for me with your paycheck

You say he doesn’t love me but it doesn’t matter because I am a go getter

I always go get

It’s just your man is the one I call my escapade

I got him wrapped around my finger like a band-aid

Call me what you want to at least I get paid

Most women get played without a nickel to their name from the nigga that makes their legs go their separate ways

I play the game like the playoffs I entertain my fans while I still get my money

So I can really care less if the your man don’t love me

but its killing you that he do

That my face reflects in your meddlesome brown eyes when he’s looking at you

And that he’s too consume in his thoughts to remember to say “I love you too”

Never tried to destroy your relationship with him I stayed away from the drama

I can’t help it that I am a priority in his life a step down from his mama

Some call it being a home wrecker intruder, tramp or all the above

But from woman to I don’t mind being the other just as long as I don’t fall in love
