You Don't, I Don't

I wish we drew out the best in each other
but that requires drawing out the best in ourselves...
I wish you didn't compare me to the other girls.
I am not them. They are not me.
Treat the hoes like hoes.
Can't make one into a housewife.
Just like women can't make a cheater, liar, or a theif
into a King. Let alone an Emeperor.

We're from two different worlds, you and I.
Probably wouldn't have worked,
but it would have been so much better.
It could have been so much better.
It should have been so much better.

If you hadn't treated me like a burden
just because someone else treated you like a burden.

I would have stayed,
but I'll be damned if I let you play me
for the fool you clearly think that I am.

I know why you do what you are doing. You don't.
But that doesn't mean I have to like it. I don't.
