Tender Eyed Woman ( The enemy In my house)
James Price 1983 (new york)
I cant believe I have been deceived or have I deceived myself ?
I attached myself to her through intercourse, but she was not what I expected
She is tender eyed and I would find that out shortly after
She bore me two children and she would feed them to the fire if she was under pressure
She would watch her husband be raped by the master if she believed her hands would get dirty
She shows no remorse if her children get snatched away, she hates that which she has made
How naïve have I been to let a demon in my house
She would even take the food out her children's mouth if it meant she would miss a meal
Only her is her care her selfishness has no fear
It keep moving forward and it has no bounds
How to stop this spirit from consuming my house
I had to divorce her and just spit her out
The tender eyed women can never change
Always looking for someone to blame
Knock, Knock always seeking a friend
Beware not to let her in, because the tender women's folly has no end.
