Wake -Up Call

Wake-Up Call [A PoetSong]

[Verse 1]
I know this was only 4 years ago
I was just as blind as anyone knows
To see
That you
were not
the guy
I thought you were

Faithfully
I trusted you
to actually see me thru
the tears
the fears
the times
the rhymes
Oh well....

How about
take a trip 8 months later
after we broke it off
because of a dumfounded fear of commitment
I had to find out from a girl friend of mine
that U.... were .... nasty.....

(ooohhh!)

[Chorus]

Nasty boy... 
Womanizer...
Player, pimp
I should've known
Because you looked like a wimp
I was a fool
I felt sorry for you (felt sorry for you (3x))
Why? Why? Why?

Maybe it was a wake-up call
From the baller
Maybe I got the wake-up call
From the un-der-cover pimp
A wake-up call
Wake-up call

From the dirty nasty stinkin midget fink
Hello? What's Up?
You really really like me
But not as into you as I thought
I thought you weren't my type either
But again
I felt sorry for you!

[Verse 2]

Fast forward to January '05
Thank God that I am still alive
Holding up my head high
I had another one of my friends tell me that
U got played by this girl before
Which was the flip of the story that I got back in October '04
She said 'you must forgive
or it won't be easy for the next man that comes into your life'
Which is true
I felt sorry for you
Why?
You were kinda shady anyway and it gave me a turn
This is a lesson I had to learn

[Chorus]

Nasty boy... 
Womanizer...
Player, pimp
I should've known
Because you looked like a wimp
I was a fool
I felt sorry for you (felt sorry for you (3x))
Why? Why? Why?

I got the wake-up call
From the baller
I got the wake-up call
From the un-der-cover pimp
A wake-up call
Wake-up call
From the dirty nasty stinkin midget fink

Felt sorry to give all my love to you
I still have love for you
I always will
But from a distance
I forgive you
I must go on
And pursue what God has for me..
Crazy.....
Stupid...
But I , but I , but I , but I forgive myself now
I have moved on
With my life
Yeah!!!!!!!!!
