"NEVER LOOK BACKWARDS ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD!"

Lisa Left-eye Lopes


you think I'M heartless.
I got you breathless.
you did me wrong and gave me nothing but stress.
and now I'm suppose to let you off easy.
you wonder what's next.
I think it's better if you guess.
do you know what you did to me?
I don't think you do.

Try me.
Test me.
until finally I've had enough.
it's a little to late but it must be done.
you've lied to me!
and you've stole from me!
so now i gotta do what you pushed me to do!
That's the way it is.

Flip the script.
Treat you like dirt.
hang out with the girls.
and forget you exist!
Flirt with another man.
don't return your phone calls.
don't bother checking in with you at all.
Walk with a man hand in hand.
That's The Way It Is.

Learn how to treat a real woman.
Then I'll treat you like a real man.
Learn to respect me as your lady!
then I'll treat you like a king baby!
That's The Way It Is!

The author's comments:
i wrote this because i've had a boyfriend who didn't really respect me and finally when it's too late he didn't know what he had. he had something special. he didn't know this until it was gone.
