Jaded

You say you in love,

but you're really in lust.

Jaded by your past.

Still givin' out your trust.

Everytime you fall,

you can't land on your feet.

No you sobbin' in the night,

'cause life got you beat.

You know what to do,

but you really don't care.

Boppin's more important,

along with your nails and your hair.

While your daughter's lookin' for love

in all the wrong places.

Now its too many faces

where little girls leave no traces.

Her innocence is gone.

All she needed was a home.

Now she all grown

and the cycle goes on.

But you high in the zone,

and your skin's lost it's tone.

Everybody in the family askin'

exactly what is it you are on.

You askin' for help

when you need to help yourself.

Instead of trickin' on the streets,

riskin' your health.

I tried to talk to you,

but it seems like you're deaf.

Now everybody's bowing their heads,

as you take your last breathe.
