Like A Child

See now,

Like a jealous child

You thought you could easily take what I already got.

You’re not confident enough in yourself to be me.

That’s why you chasin’ ain’t it?

My style; I'm fly

The way my eyes crinkle when I smile

Like a child

You thought he would fall in love with you

For the same reasons he fell in love with me.

But baby girl,

You’re not smart enough to attain a man.

Cause when you lay it all out there

Without a care,

Ankles never meeting

Cause your legs are always in a succession,

Never progressing,

Always suppressing your original expression

But you need to have a closed session

Cause when you offer up yourself like that

You take away the chase

And when he’s done with you

He’ll just walk away.

See now,

You thought you were special

Cause he was with you for a second.

But you were a mistake,

One he would never waste

Time and revel in

Cause like Thea Monyee said:

“Your pussy’s not deep enough to fall in

love with,”

Cause if anyone can turn you on

Like a light bulb

You ain’t nothing special.

So stop thinking you can be me,

Cause not everybody can be a queen.

You can’t turn a ho in to a housewife

So don’t yourself.

You thought when I left

You would fit perfectly

Cut, Photo shopped, and framed

Edited like MySpace photo

Cropped in

Right where I used to be
But in reality

I’m still here

I was never really gone

Cause my presence is too big to be ignore

Considering that in life,

I’m his main component.

I’m baffled as to why

You would even try this

Cause you were a friend

And I was your best friend

And even before I was gone

Your true colors showed.

And you showed me

Your feathers are much different from mine

That’s why I could never flap my wings

And fly with you

You don’t respect yourself

The crown you once wore

Is now discarded on the floor

Your once beautiful gold crown

Is now a shanti tin can at the age of 13.

There’s no one you could blame for your life

Cause with the cards you were dealt

You could have one this poker game.

You can’t blame me for losing

You can’t blame me for your life

Cause I’ve done nothing to wrong you

You bit my hand when I fed you

And your siblings

All 8 of y’all

You try to be me,

But you cant imitate royalty

Because both you and I know

How it ends in the movie

And trust me when I say
Your no Anastasia
