I’m sorry I’m really confused
I sometimes get amused
By games
Played like lames
Where’d we argue about how who’s more right and call each other names
Take off those frames
Shove your tongue down my throat
Ask me to yell out a note
But I always catch myself in a sinking boat
You like to read the currents? I just like to float
Shit I don’t care if the ship sinks
I don’t care if you can’t handle drinks
No I don’t care you wait to tell me things months later
I don’t care about those girls you fuck with, I’m no hater
I don’t care you don’t think I’m pretty
I don’t care that you just care about yourself, even though things are shitty
No I don’t care about anything because I’m young
I don’t care that you say mean things and make me happy with your tongue
I like to think that you know and are going to do what is right
I figure that this amount of hurt is a healthy fight
I just have a spot for dark skin niggas and you like me because I’m light
And we don’t have anything in common and that’s okay
I use to yell at you because I thought you weren’t going to stay
Now I’m scared for dear life
That as soon as I’m in college I’m going to be the wife
Of somebody that doesn’t adore me
That doesn’t appreciate more of me
I just hope you’re sure of me
