To generalize me with all females would be easy to say
Yes I am emotional, vain and moody today
But it wasn't me who put you through the strain
Of being a single father and deal with baby mama pain.
It wasn't me you had a secret affair with
I wasn't the other woman or your quick fix
Nor was I your first love, so why generalize me
If I was never any of the above?
I was the one who became your good friend
The one you laughed and joked with when
We were the only two who understood our strife
Our imperfections and our way of life.
and then...
I was the one that held you that night
In your bed, in your arms, with your pain in my sight
When you told me you were lonely
But you werent. I said you had me.
Since then I would always picture your face
That night sleepin at peace as I enjoyed your embrace
After that moment I had dreaded
That our friendship could be headed
Down a dangerous path.
I knew we would share much more pain, laughs and insecurities
And share many more sleepless nights with endless opportunities
But I knew what I wanted and you knew what you would do
If I had disregarded my belief and gave my all to you.
and now...
A year has passed since I put my beliefs aside
And our friendship has weakend with a bigger divide
Between us both than ever before
I knew exactly a year ago what was in store
When you had called me after I drove away
When you had asked me once again if I had wanted to stay
I turned around because deep down I wanted it too
But you wanted me for my body. All I ever wanted was YOU!!!
It is sad that you cant fathom love from me:
The unconditional kind, that is innocent and always forgiving
I wear your scars from head to toe
And I will still be here for you even so.
I switch cheeeks like you switch women
I will still be here for you even then.
Why? Because even though you keep it inside
I know the man, your best self, that you hide
The reason we had so many HAPPY times
It was YOU who kept your cool when I was rash and acted without patience
It was YOU who taught me about life when, to me, it just didn't make sense
It was YOU who gave me a voice when I couldn't breathe
And most of all...
It was YOU who kept me free of grief and lonliness when my family left me
For TRULY being there, when I TRULY needed you the most
I will always know you for your best, and always want you close
Never will I ever forget... Never... No matter what you've told me
Whatever you did, past, present or future
Whether you are good or bad, you will ALWAYS be my homie.
