*PART 1* i’m….(i must be) losing my touch... for i loved you so much and still ii felt like a fool expelled from your private school (and that was all up until...) you…out on a limb not nearly as loud as him as annoyed as you say destroyed by the light of day . *PART 2* i’m selfish and rude i’m as alone as you say give up if you’ve got it we’re gonna weather the storm we’ll dig you a grave we’ll keep ourselves warm the chinks in your armor… they grow by the day don’t you know we’re gonna zoom zoom zoom? so don’t throw me away… if you feel like getting even, then get it while you can if you see that someone’s suffering, then blame it on the man if you’re sick of all the same old, then make a brand new plan if you see your lover’s lovers, just disregard them all if your sheet’s without a cover, then sleep against the wall if you don’t have one another, then have yourself a ball… if you feel like getting married, then ask me once again if you’d rather be a cheater, then love me while you can move along… how could we get it so wrong? becoming one with the night… stopped at a traffic light… green to red… she thinks i’m sick in the head… well baby, maybe that’s true i was infected by you… some were built to spill… some were meant to kill… some will walk the mile… some will stop and smile… take the blame… take the hit… take the bait… the steel mills the holding cells the angry mobs the tolling bells the wishing wells the heavens, the hells me too, he too, she too, you too, they too some find it hot some lose their cool some seem so smart some play the fool some go to work some stay in school . . . 👑🏰.⚔️kingdomofJoGa.com/⚔️.🏰👑 🏆✨✨*WE WON THE WAR* ✨✨🏆

(deserving of all of the worst things in life) (the type that you read in the papers...) (...that once had some children and the love of a 'wife') . what can change in the heat of a moment? my moment of passion? i own it... (and i’m not letting go...) you’re making me feel like a person... (who really should know...) . *VERSE 3* …and here i thought that we had a connection... (our 'moment of passion') it happened yo, i’m not letting go but what was i thinking?

(...all in a 'matter' of 'moments'...) (...all in the 'name' of 'forgiveness'…) (...all just serving our purposes…) (baby maybe next time…) . . . 👑🏰.⚔️kingdomofJoGa.com/⚔️.🏰👑 🏆✨✨*WE WON THE WAR* ✨✨🏆
