You have my heart so treat it right You only get it for one night They say love is patient love is kind You need to take care of this heart of mine What more do I have to do To get you to love me too What do they have that I lack Is it beauty is it lust I gave you my heart, but we lack trust What more can I do I told you how much I love you I show you on a daily, but maybe You need more than I can give You have my heart but now you give My reason to just wonder what I have been missing All I want is true love, that’s all I seek Another broken heart, how long will it heal Just another women wanting something real
I’m invisible but maybe I’m good Love is not blind but my color should I don’t feel like I fit in this world You can be anything you want but just not that girl Don’t give them anything to talk about We are not invisible maybe we should But what good would that do they are always better than you Your color will always stand out to them If you love me then you will understand Will I come home when I walk out this door I’m not invisible that is for sure Love is not blind but my color should Maybe black men would come back home The fathers are missing and you don’t have a clue No one is taking someone away from you But still, you think is this okay Is this really the Christian way Is God okay when you pull that trigger Does it make it right or is fear what you trigger Keep us in our place is what you say Love is not blind but black is not okay
Don’t fight this feeling This pain in my chest I know that I’m right But the problem went left How do you hold on Where do you turn Life is so uncertain One day you will learn You can’t understand Your pride in the way Don’t fight the feeling You have so much to say Yes I have loved and lost at the same time Where is the light which way does it shine No matter how much you try to contain The pain in your heart will never be the same How do you lighten the load with so much pain You can’t understand it it’s not the same Don’t fight this feeling This pain in your chest Don’t fight the feeling When nothing is left
Can I be honest and tell you how I feel From the beginning, I have always been real No matter the day the time of the year I have always prayed for you and I always will Love, life and hate is all around When you leave I stop breathing because I don’t know if you will be around There is so much killing, little regard for life You’re a black man and I your black wife If you don’t come home, no one will care I’m left to deal with the pain that no one else has to bare I thought love would be easy but it comes with so much pain We are not equal and our life isn’t the same I pose no threat yet you are afraid of me I own no weapons but death is what you see To say I’m scared is truth and facts When killing is so easy especially if you’re black No day we will all be equal you see but this is not easy because America is not free My hair is to nappy, my lips too big I have to be groomed for you in a certain way No matter what I won’t be better than you My life is pointless and you don’t have a clue We will all be judged by what we did on Earth We are all one for what it’s worth
I love you yes I do I love you because I am you Some tried to break you But you didn’t give in You’re full of life and love So please don’t let it end I love you yes I do I love you because I am you Your laugh your joy it brings me peace You’re full of love and very deep You didn’t see yourself as beautiful but now you do I love you because I am you Understand that you are one of a kind Your love is an understatement one of a kind Please don’t let no one still your joy I love you yes I do I love you because I am you
I’m just trying to have a conversation with you But you don’t hear me and you say it’s not true Stop trying to fix me and listen to my heart I have so much to say but where do I start You interrupt me like you know what I’m about to say You can’t understand why you push me away I feel like screaming to the top of my lungs Are you finish are you done You don’t know what it means to be friends How do I start and where do I begin You don’t see the pain deep in my heart You use to always listen to me from the start What has changed and what has gone wrong I just need you to be my friend, so what went wrong Stop trying to fix what’s not broken My heart is on the verge of about to be broken I don’t know how much more I can take I use to love how you listen and supported me But that’s all gone and there is no more of me
I struggle to see what I can not find I struggle to remember that place in time I struggle to see my self-worth I struggle to feel I am enough My struggle is real far from not My struggle is beauty whether I have it or not My struggle is love do you love me or not My struggle is connection is it real or not My struggle is me from far within My struggle is real where do I begin My struggle with friendships are they true or not My struggle for self-worth do I love me or not My struggle with fear goes to deep My struggle with pain is why I can’t sleep My struggle for trust has a lot to be desired My struggle is real and not admired
I’ve never considered myself as beautiful. I’m not a confident person when it comes to my looks and body. See I have been molested and physically abused. So to me, my self-worth was low. I’ve had to battle forgiving myself for what happened to me years ago. But something happened on my birthday that I can’t explain. I felt confident and beautiful in my skin. I’ve never felt sexy before but it’s like all the layers of me fell off that day. It’s like the little girl and woman that I am coming to realize I’m beautiful. Despite what others tried to take from me I have survived. I love her yes I do I love her because I am you I love you for your joys and pains The strength you give I love her yes I do I love her because I am you You hide your pain no one can see The love you give is beyond beauty You give so much and get nothing in return So many lessons all have been learned I love her yes I do I love her because I am you They may not see your beauty And what you have to share Your joy is endless and some are aware Your love for other’s never goes unnoticed I love her yes I do I love her because I am you
It took me a while to look within and understand that no matter what was done they can’t take away my beauty. I’ve always heard that I was beautiful, pretty, etc but I never believed it. Until now my eyes are wide open and no matter what anyone may feel I’m beautiful. I will no longer accept my insecurities any longer.
It’s killing me inside that our connection not the same It’s my fault I know I was to blame It hurts when I see you you just don’t understand One selfish moment and it’s not the same man I felt I was doing what was right for me Never did I see it from your eyes I thought I could be free Free from the pain that I was dealt Not free from leaving you was the pain I was dealt If I could go back and do it over again things would be different The pain would still be there but at least you would know I will hold you down for life no matter where I go I always was there just one call away It wasn’t the same and in time things felt hard in away I know my choices didn’t make any sense You were always important and in sense I will always live with the pain that I put you through If I could go back in time I would be with you I should have thought of you not my pain I know it’s true, I’ve said I’m sorry so many times I can’t redo the past, but in time I hope you forgive me for what I’ve done My love has never wavered not even one time You all mean so much to me If I could go back in time I would still be here The pain would be mine to bear but at least I have you One day I hope you will forgive as I will try to forgive myself You matter so much to me I hope you understand
Follow me here Don’t leave me alone My heart is on my sleeve And I’m all alone No love no shame I have played all the games No more tears no more lies I’ve cried enough yet more tears fall Follow me here Love is all I have Follow me here Don’t leave me alone Fear and sorrow but now it’s gone Follow me here Don’t leave me alone Alone and now I’m gone
