Skye Townsend - Free lyrics

I wish that somebody would bring me a compa** or even a map Just something to distract me from the fact that I am lost I got caught up in the whirlwind of experimentation And I don't mean s**ual relations Or physical stimulation limitations; I got lost by love See, the media has convinced me that all men lie and all men cheat And if you're bound to be disrespected then why bother speak? That black men don't want brown girls to match with If a guy shows any interest don't get too attached He will leave. And I've found a good one A really good guy but when you are stuck in a negative mind state You feel like happiness is a lie And you wait for someone to do you wrong ‘cause you've never been done right So, you put on your scariest mask Pull out your ugliest words Stab deep wounds with your sharpest attitudes And wait for someone to abandon you Like you a**ume you deserve See, I grew up making the a**umption that you date to break up No such thing as a permanent make-up You marry to divorce, make rules just to enforce And you forget that love is about loving somebody Not picking them apart, not fighting, but love And I've waited years for this guy to mess up I ran from the truth cause it wasn't enough I wanted lies, I wanted to be fooled so I can move forward And not have to worry about being lied to or fooled anymore I spat hate, he swallowed pride I cooked pain, he threw up lies I kicked him out, he came inside I walked away, he walked beside I called him out, he never denied a thing He continued to be patient and I hated it I would look through his phone Hoping to catch him calling another girl by my name I would yell anytime he left the house with hopes of driving him so crazy That he would approach another girl with the same lips that kiss me goodbye I would get an attitude when he told me how much he loved me And hopes that maybe he wouldn't love me anymore and I would finally be free And now that I am alone, I realized that the definition of free has changed What's free about checking your phone knowing you won't have a text? Or a guy telling you “you're beautiful and if you ever need s**, can I be next?” I mean what's free about nobody being there to defend you when you're called out your name And now that I've grown up, being free isn't the same So yes, ladies. Some guys will cheat, some will lie and even disrespect you But when you come across a good man Don't scare him, don't share him and when you're given the truth Don't pray for a lie Free Free Free is me Free is we Free as the sky Being lost in love will have you hitchhiking on the corner of lost and confused Seeking refuge in a focus Hopes of hocus pocus Smoothing over wrinkles noticed in a young brow and a soft girl becoming caramelized Turning darker Getting hardened Saying excuses Dolly parton'ed And she believed his lies Cause he lied so good But he wasn't a good one Again And then suddenly there is no good one The end His story Defend Ten stories, dug in That's a deep foundation of concrete around her heart, with a mote in front of it No boat to tug in it And a host of lover friends bout that business from that start The good ones go Drake buckled up and in the playlist of her sadness ipod shuffled in maddness Nd' she darts off of start and runs faster than fastest On highway 360 Shifting her shifty curves Spitting her splitting verbs Wheeling men in and kicking them to the curb But one don't kick well Hun don't fit the spell Love gon sit with her while inside she kicks and yells “Why are you still here?” And “Why aren't you gone?” And “Where the hell did you find that boat for that mote in my lawn?” And “Why don't you regret that I've hurt you with my song?” “Why harmonize with my pride and make me feel less wrong?” And “Why did he and he and he help produce my melody, but you pitch correct and then perfect my music with your key” “Why do i feel less hatred the more you let me cry?” And “Why do you kiss my tears and taste each year and each lie?, I mean why?” “Tell me why it means that much to me” The answer glistened in his eye The definition of free The definition of free The definition of me I saw the sky in his eyes It was the definition of free Demise in his eyes My own perception of me I saw surprise in my eyes that I could finally see the definition of me I saw the bew and the tee Aw man I saw excuses drip away And heard the music in me The definition of me The definition of free I saw myself in his eyes And i fell in love with we Free Free
