The Streets

it's a shame aint it
the first poem i could write about you is loosing you to the streets
never another girl
not ya niggas eaither...
but the streets
when it came to us you always put that first
always kicked me to the side
baby that wasn't right
but i stuck by ya side
we ran these streets tighter than bonnie & clyde
but now you're gone
i lost you
is it i lost you or the streets took you
i pulled but they yanked
they showed you their goodies and you went straight to the bank
for God's sake
i pray and i pray everyday for you
pleaded with God to protect you with his hedge of protection
it's true
that i just really might love you
or is it my heart just searching for an emotion to fill this space you used to
nobody can fill it
nothing can take your place in my heart not even the repo-man
i'm all cried out as i see our relationship float downstream
as my tears carry it away i'm just wondering how i'll be able to face a new day....
