You lost out

We were young

You said you loved me but you loved her

Told me not to worry, she don’t have on me

I believed you, adored you

When she came through, u went with her

Without a sound, without a word

I was alone, I was the enemy

She laughed, you worshipped her

Until till you became old news

Stripped you of your money and your manhood

She left you worthless, without a home

She wore your ring while she had her arms wrapped around another man’s neck

I grieved yourfor months

Slept the hurt away, bathed in my remorse

And here I stand with my battle wounds engraved in my heart

You asked for my forgiveness and I forgave

I can only offer my friendship

You see, I’m a whole woman now

And I ain’t bitter no mo’

I look in your eyes and you sitting here beggin’ for my love

But now, I ain’t the old me…and I ain’t going be the new her.
