"Stay in peace, not pieces". (Iyanla Vanzant)


I got this dude who’s always on my mind,
He got me runnin’ ‘round in circles cuz he take up all my time,
He already know how I feel, & I just wanna make him mine.
Dark skin dude, he stay with that happy mood,
and when I'm around him, I can't help but drop my tude.
In fact you're the reason I  wrote this piece boo.
Listen: Them other dudes is ok, but I'm feelin’ you.
You gotta trust me that there’ll never be a day I wanna spend without you.
YOu like what I always wanted, a daily Christmas present.
And as long as you at school i'll always be present.
I don't wanna assume, but I think I found my solution.
I think the queen has found her king, but only you can make that conclusion.
A penny for every time I thought about you? I’d have exactly 1 cent.
Cuz  after I saw you saturday night, you ain't left my mind since.
So babe? You wanna go steady? I mean will you be my man?
But you gotta promise you’ll stay true, and not hold these other girls’ hands.
I ain't got time to be lookin’ for phone numbers on loose scraps in ya pants.
Tell me I’ll be the only girls in your life, besides your mom and your sis.
I need to know how you feel in order for these late night talks to persist.
You can't be tempted by pretty girls with nice curves,
You can't forget about my feelings for them tight skirts,
& ain't no ridin’ with me only to leave when my life hurts.
But I got you too. Don't think it's one sided, I’ll be there for you boo.
I could be your ride or die, I figure it's ‘bout time you knew.
So let me tell ya, I'll be down for whatever no matter THE THINGS you been through.
So babe? You wanna go steady? I mean will you be my man?
I'm sittin’ here, waitin on the edge of my seat, so please tell me if you can.
Now I don't need no superhero, but you could be my superman.
I may not need you, but I wanna call you my man.
Just give me a chance to change your mind, I mean I don't give up too easy.
I’mma work for your heart, it's gonna be a day I please thee.
But just cuz you ain't gotta chase, don't mean anything on me easy.
And fair warning: IF we get together I can't promise to make it easy.
There’ll be nights when I get pissed, and i’mma need you to magically read me.
But I can promise this:
You could be my shooting star, a light that never stops soaring.
YOu could be the reason my life is never boring.
I could be your strength, maybe even your weakness.
We could make them wish they had something like this.
So babe you wanna go steady? I mean will you be my man?
I just wanna know if you want to, & if you don't i understand.
