One sided



One sided

 It seems like i’m constantly getting weird vibes,
 ‘Not a soul in this world I can trust, Nobody in which i can confide,
No one to keep me up when the shore depletes from the tides,
Because over the years the experience and tears has taught me to believe that every word a person speaks is a lie,

Watch how you move around me, I’m quick to say “I'm done with you”,
Hell yea i got trust issues!
The dumbest shit that ever came out my mouth was “I'm in love with you”,

I had to close up shop when things got messy,
I cant forget the times you had me second
guessing,
Stressing!
 People come and go out of my life because i cant tell the difference between a burden or a blessing!

 What would you have me do?
 People talk to me like I have no (sole/soul) Yet get callus at the thought of even walking in my shoes,

I knew I had to lose my emotions and use logic,
I Had to remember common sense really aint so common,
 I had to learn to close up when people laughed at me when I was broke and had roaches crawling out of my ramen,
This is for the nights the officers called for mail and I didn’t get a single letter in confinement, Theres no a soul in this world i can align with,

Because a f*ck boy will take a mile as soon as you give an inch,
And a bitch will texts you she loves you while the other hand strokes another mans….

This is reality I know my words are going to have a lot of people mad at me, I walk alone because I don’t agree with the ways people just show off casually,
Then it turns into casualties,

 Im not one for explanations after a certain period of time,
Because A true man or woman admits their wrong as soon as he/she crosses the line,
Forgive me if im overly quiet but my tongue is swollen from constantly having to bite it,
Forgive me if im biased But these trust issues have me one sided.
