Back With the Swagger

I can’t believe I let you do that to me,
But now I'm back to my right mind and not as I used to be,
How could I have made myself look so weak?
Just because of the love and affection, I seek.
I was sadly turned fragile like an egg,
So much unlike me, I was even made to beg.
Like Jesus, I was disrespected, but still meek.
Hoping for a chance that looks uncertain and bleak.
I watched myself go down and drown so deep,
Laid aside my self-pride and presented myself too cheap.
I esteemed you rather too high, which made your pride swell,
That was what gave you the confidence to give me hell.
It's not your fault though; I'll take all the blame,
At least, the blame is nothing compared to the shame,
I admit to have planted and nurtured in you that ego seed.
But now I'm taking back my rightful place with speed,
You in't got nothing on me no more,
Coz from now I'mma be running it hardcore.

What in the world was I thinking?
That I became a fool without knowing.
I wonder what I even saw in you in the first place.
I that never gave a damn about any girl nor look at her face.
Always got my stuff together,
And have sweet girls trail me wherever.
What do you think you have that gets so much into your head,
Giving you the confidence to hurt me and see the amount tear I shed.
You should be counting yourself lucky to have known a person like me,
And that you got to know me not for fortunes, but for free.
This big boy has now gotten his swagga back on,
With all those childish shawties, I'm done.
It's time to move on to bigger and better things,
Enjoy life and cherish the beautiful moments it brings.
You thought you had the control, but now the tables have turned,
You thought you got in my head, but I got your memories burned.
You won't find anyone like me no matter how hard you try,
For me, I'm finally free like a bird and I'm ready to fly.
