SIREN

SIREN

 Vulnerable & scared in the moment so I just jumped in
Headfirst, not a hint of conviction
Should have took time for myself
But i assumed that i’d be denied by everyone else
So i took a risk and accepted my fate
Didn’t realize that that was a foolish mistake
But then i said will you marry me
Thought that it would help to balance me
Seems that that was just a fallacy
Here we are some years later
Back and forth like its ping pong
But we playing with a hand grenade
Could have just never said it and it would have saved
Both of us from all the scars on the heart
Unfortunately its just too late now
Someone help cuz its man down
Both bringing out the bitterness
Shooting shots and we never miss
Bullseye cuz we know right where to hit
Said that you would have a baby
Whether with me or with somebody else
Should’ve know right there and then
That you should have been for somebody else
Now don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t ever take it back
Even through all of the pain 
That bundle of joy is worth so much more than that
Was hoping that you’d lift me up in the areas I lacked
Then I would do the same and we’d be right on track
To building an enterprise and a legacy
That was just a hope that ended up recklessly
All of the doubt it just pushed me out
Guess it’s okay cause you gave me something to prove
You still have no clue what I’m gonna do
All of your comments they’ll just be reproved
