You don’t understand why I left
Are you that blissfully unaware
Or is it that you are that dumb
Well I have some things I want to share
Let me tell you all the ways
In which you failed me
Here’s a list
You lied to me
Misrepresented your intentions
You Tantalized me
Then you Denied me
And Misled me
You strung me along
Gave me false hope and
Made me believe I wasn’t good enough
You made me question what was wrong
But let’s be honest now it’s all you
I was a fool to be so blind
Now I have some things I want to share
Let me tell you all the ways
In which you failed me
Here’s a list
You wanted more
Even though I gave you everything
Yes You were selfish
I wasn’t enough
So you cheated
And you broke my heart
I was just your victim
You only cared about what you could get
Listen Chuck, you know it’s you
Don’t try to deflect to the men who came past you
Yeah they failed at the end game
But at least they didn’t fuck me over
Let me tell you all the ways
In which you failed me
Here’s a list
You gave me hope
Then snatched it away once I settled
Played me the fool
When I was young
And maybe dumb
Yet you never cared
You got what you could from me
It’s a shame you’ve no guilt for what you did
Yet I thank you
You gave me a list
Of things not to tolerate.
You made me better
Than you’ll ever be.
Your memory is toxic to my soul
Your being has me chained up to a wall
I won’t allow you to poison me anymore
it’s sad to see you lose it all
Yet I won’t allow myself to be affected
By your accepted self inflicted misery
You are contagious.
I won’t be contaminated... by you now
You were infectious
I won’t be contaminated... anymore
Now it’s not about you it’s about me
I’ve given you all that I care to give
Yet I still wish that you could still be free
Yet your sickness won’t let me live
And I don’t have the energy for your friendship.
Yeah It’s not you it’s me and all of that bullshit
You are contagious.
I won’t be contaminated... by you now
You were infectious
I won’t be contaminated... anymore
I went down that road with you
But you went left and then I went right
I look back and question what you do
You began to dim I found the light
I’m sorry I can’t meet you in the middle, anymore.
You have the problem but I’m choosing not to deal
I care for you but I can’t be there anymore
You are contagious.
I won’t be contaminated... by you now
You were infectious
I won’t be contaminated... anymore
You always wonder why everyone is against you
Have you ever heard what comes out of your mouth?
It’s everything you continue to say and everything you do
You continue to drive yourself further and further south
You continue to blame everything on everyone but have you ever began to consider you thought yourself a little too privileged and when the truth hit you like a pile of bricks you weren’t capable to cope
The truth is you are able
But you can’t pull yourself up
Poetry won’t let me say it so I’ll speak it... you claim you aren’t mentally able yet you’re smart enough to fake it so your laziness can slide for another day, you’re a con
I lived with you for three years you have your problems
I could tell you to suck it up and move on
But you lash out because it’s not what you want to hear from me then
I’m sorry that the truth doesn’t fit in your narrative
You depend on a failed system to fix you yet you’re mad when it does nothing for you despite no matter what we tell you I guess you still know better yet you suffocate in your misery but it’s what you always do
The truth is you are able
But you can’t pull yourself up
Here’s the truth of it I hope your skin is thick
You’re a jealous white man jealous of welfare yes you did your time yet and you’re looking for a government hand out yet when I tried to help you, you scraped any mention of why you are were you are today, silly gay.
Stop playing the victim
Look to yourself and realize
You need to break yourself apart
I’m sorry but facts are facts, if it’s all wrong you maybe you aren’t right. I would have told you before but I feared a punch to the face, yes I feared you.
The truth is you are able
But you can’t pull yourself up
