If You Only Knew
10-19-2017
If you only knew
How much my love grew
I get defensive
Every time I see you
Sad, knowing i cant be with you,
I see a queen
When i see you
I'm holding back
Because i see the real you,
Being treated live i have
We see chaos daily
I only envision a beach
With just you and me,
Angels laughing at our laughs
To witness pure love
Yet stuck in these streets
Knowing we will
Never get to see,
Love is a drag
What do they know about us
To have bad after bad
Living life as borrowed time
With nothing left but a toe tag,
Calling us thugs?
When we are just
Looking for hugs
Were human too
Praying our kids learn from us,
We want them to excel in school
To be everything we wanted to be
Dream the dreams we hoped to see
Should i speak more eloquently?
If you only knew
The knowledge kept from us
If you only knew
How much
We loved you from the jump
If you only knew
How brazy we can get
If they only knew
We are intelligent, but never get
It...
