Tatoos vs Me, not you[[confabulate]]

Lindokuhle Langa 1995 (gauteng)



It is easy to get another one too I hope you'd plus it again, tattoo said.
Miss me without an ink that spells suicide on my beautiful skin decorated enough,
I'd laugh at you louder; I said not even you.
Tattoo a thing close to you that you should look around and knee next to me, as it barges.
Woe! damn I'd be a fool.
Have you seen those permanent statues that move within moments that prevails you, declining all few who saw you.
I want it on you,
you want it on me!!!
why me, I questioned.
I'm nothing like winds that terrifies a temper insane.
My voice of reason will make you see me whenever, whatever and together forever.
eh this of a thing that disturbs children leaving them like bosses keeping chosen choices,
f*ck I'm something amazing I'll be a GPS to soon among nominees of silver spoon, I tattooed your loved ones.
Lost ones those you did and price a bid weaker, I'd do you not...
you wouldn't dare to dirty souls damaging bodies that you may even fee,
don't belong to you; hence you'd be long ready to sell it again,
before you bought buy.
Good lies gone for good told goodbye,
blue Wednesday morning went dry abide tattoos as to cartoons, I emphasized on Thursday.
