Gotta keep to my own
Got regrets on my phone
Been keeping that secret
So I never know where to go
Or who to tell
So I gotta let go
Been feeling myself so I'm not low
But feeling too good got my eyes closed
Is it my drugs it or is it my hope
To get me better on my own road

Gotta keep to my own
Got regrets on my phone
Been keeping that secret
So I never know where to go
Or who to tell
So I gotta let go
Been feeling myself so I'm not low
But feeling too good got my eyes closed
Is it my drugs it or is it my hope
To get me better on my own road

Threw her bra at my face
And a hand roamed a waist
And the next morning a whole reputation is erased
Now, I'm not trying to spit this so her character defaced
But it's odd to fake sleep so your friends can leave
Just so you could turn around requesting sleep at my place
My soul must resolve what the bishop can't absolve
But at least I'm past the guilt of ever being involved
In a fellowship with several that so bitterly dissolved

Reading body language while cuddling is dangerous
I propose caressing be preceded by some pages
Presenting expectations, covering all bases
Just so neither has to pay transgression's bitter wages

This is not a denigration
Or a contestation
Of the many allegations
Speaking of the degradation
Of this nation
And beyond it
Just do see it as one human's situation

No offense
But it's hard to say I've trusted others since
Had a couple come to me
But I won't lower my defense
Hard to dance within the ball when ball's attached to your conscience

I remember cold sweats
Trying to differentiate between the friend and foe while I was walking
Wasn't just sulking
Frequently I had to quell idea of my life's forsaking
Many might ask why if I'm innocent I'd take it so hard
The answer is that I can only see intent from my side
You can count a hundred paces by a foot or a yard
But at the end of the day, the pistol decides if you die

That's truth
Mark your paces
To be shot with ruth
Brush your teeth
To find rotten tooth

But I've found my peace
Hard-fought, but I got it
Like the Golden Fleece

And I have those individuals
Who stood beside me
Midst weather stormy
In dark sea
